Observation dome, any leads?

Hi all,

Does anyone know where I can find a Perspex observation dome as used on the British multi-engined aircraft of the fourties and fifties such as Lancaster, Wellington, Valetta, etc. There must be some still around in the UK.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

Cees- I am back in circulation! I traced the dome to Graham Vail at East Midlands. He has received it as a spare for his Varsity-he might however use it as a trade / swop etc

We have two – I think they are probably from Valetta/Varsity aircraft but they have a sort of airscoop on the top – would one of them be any good to you – they are in decent nick
