The film of the Yeovilton aero jumble from the same guy took me back. Pocket money was saved up for months. If only I’d known then etc. etc.

Seafury prop/engine
Me109 prop
B17 (not Halifax) prop

Apart from the early ‘howlers’ it is quite an interesting video from 1983.
The first propeller and (18 cylinder) engine are almost certainly from a Sea Fury.
What about the others…..Bf109? Halifax? And what happened to them?
