When the Bristol Aircraft Collection were having a clear-out a year or two back we obtained this hydraulic ground test rig from them as they needed shot of it.
Anyway, having saved it, it turns out it is of no use to us and is taking up valuable space so if anyone wants it, just arrange to pick it up (S. Lancs) and it is yours.
I don’t know a fat lot about this sort of equipment (some of you ground techies may recognise it) but it requires a three-phase electricity supply and is capable of supplying up to 100 bar.
Just the sort of gear you need if you have an aircraft you want to demonstrate working u/c, flaps, controls etc.
PM me if you require further pics (via e-mail).

PS – It’s big and ‘eavy!
