Interesting find, thanks!

There’s a varied selection of stuff in the TNA collection – mostly poorly catalogued, which is disappointing, as you wonder what more they they have on the image, or given they’re so ‘bald’, why they were chosen.

What about this one? (And there’s apparently an aeronautical connection…)
