Hello Nils

Regarding your Hampden part numbers,
52261B9 is part of the leading edge detachable nose from the wing.

52344L2 is a part of the electrical system (which bit I do not know ).

The other numbers are wrong as Hampen part numbers have a maximum of three numbers after the initial “52” with a letter which denotes which section of the aircraft the part comes from.

B is wings, ailerons, slats and flaps
C fuselage
D undercarriage, wheels and brakes
E flying controls
F tail unit
H powerplant, fuel tanks ect
K electrical wiring
L electrical equipment
Q armaments bomb and gun gear

Hope this is of help.
John.

Cees,

thanks for your posting.
I know about this number, but the problem was that the part number I have found, have a break to the next number behind the first part.
Now I could clean carefully the parts again. After 12 years of researching it´s the first time for me to had a problem to find the right part number…

Here now the complete part numbers I have found after cleaning. Between the first and the second number is a break of partly 4cm !

GR 63433 52261B9
GR 88661 521476…
GR 89376 527907
GR 28752 52344L2

Hi Nils,

Any pics?

The Hampden was the HP52 so all partnumers start with the 52-prefix
