So who else was at Speyer on Saturday ? There were at least 2 other UK cars in the car park!
I picked up a prearranged F4 elevator section, an Me 109 under wing panel. some Luftwaffe flap counter weights an unknown Luftwaffe panel and some RLM paint.
Piccies of some of the parts on sale.
A Bf 110 Landing flap and tail section, The mortal remains of a BV138 and stuff!
There was a beautiful unissued Borduhr in its original box with original RLM paperwork – just visible beside the landing flap.
Stopped off at Vimy Ridge on the way back – a very impressive monument and site!

Blue2 – Thank you. Next time we meet at an Aeroboot – can you let me know who you are – so that I can put a face to a name ?
Speyer Aeroboot is twice a year – April and October.
The link below gives info on the event – the German version has some more information.
http://speyer.technik-museum.de/node/656
Vendors come form Germany, France, Belgium, Holland, Poland, Czech etc.
Material is a mix of aero and militaria and is from WW1 to today.
Attached is the Me panel – with traces of original paint, ordnance code DKK and 7 bullet holes. Also an F4 elevator.

Tell me more about Speyer please (first time I have heard of it) Where is it and when is the next one and what am I likely to find? Is it similar to the UK aerojumbles?

Having seen your wares at Newark, (particularly the Asterix!) the Victor clock/panel will I’m sure be a nice piece when its completed. 🙂

You look tired on your avatar! 😀
Newforest you are not a bloodhound owner – the Avatar picture is when it was excited!
Blue2 – its just a small piece in anti flash white – I have a mounting collection of 5A clocks that need repaired- I may seek to get one going and put one in it….

and got a little bit of Victor wing …
Ooh! I look forward to seeing what you do with that! 😀

Mike – no Breguet this time.
I passed the Breguet 691/3 to a nice new owner when passing by Reims on Tuesday morning. I picked up from him a nice Mirage 3C panel for another chap.
On the way to Calais – I passed a couple of T33 pedals to a new owner and got a little bit of Victor wing and an RN Clock. On the way back – I stopped and had a chat with Rocketeer.
Just arrived back this morning and a V1 rudder had also followed me home
There was a lot of FW190 – engine cowl and 3.5 Landing flaps on sale. But definitely no Breguet.
So excuse me if I am a little tired from the exertion of the trip.
