Meteror T.7 cockpit structure.

Hi all

Does anyone have access to Meteor T.7 structural repair manual or similar, that has detailed drawings of the structure in the cockpit area of the Meteor T.7?

We are just after internal structural detail at the moment, although any information, drawings or photo’s of the T.7 cockpit area internaly and or externaly would be a great help.

As always, many thanks in advance.
Ritch and Max.

Hi Ritch & Max

The Meteor cockpit structure would be a good one to replicate. Basically there is an inner and outer skin with supporting frames inbetween. Take some measurements from one of the cockpits around, and you should be able to reproduce it.

I might have what you are looking for, I will have a roumage.

Or Contact Meteor Flight at Kemble and tell them that I put you in contact with them.

I’ve got the Vol1 for the T7 – not sure what it has in terms of structure though!

I’ll have a look

Hi Ritch,

The SAM Modellers guide to the Meteor has a good isometric of the cockpit structure from the illustrated parts catalog.

No measurements give on this but good enough to visualise the structure.

After that I suggest a trip to DoRIS at RAF Museum, Hendon where they will have a copy of the APs. Identify which pages you want copied and they will do the rest.

Regards
Ross
