Does anyone know a good contact, presumably within Bombardier, regarding archive material they may have for Short Bros pre-war. I have located a number of project tender documents in the RAeC archive and want to compare with any similar material that they may hold. Thanks

there are no blueprints there, but they seem to be very helpful if you contact them.
If anyone needs to find out about Oswald Short there is a family member who has been putting a history together. Don’t know their name personally, but if you contact the Stirling Aircraft Society they should be able to put you in touch with them

Ah, that’s not good news.
Right, the hunt is on……

Thanks. They certainly appear to have extensive photo collections but the search function doesn’t seem to locate any blueprints etc. Dis you manage to locate any similar drawings for the Stirling there?

Hi there
I think that most if not all of the Shorts archive went to the Public Records Office Northern Ireland (PRONI). That’s where we got the majority of our internal photo evidence from for the Stirling
