Throttle from Shoreham

The old memory is getting worse!

Austin or Grumman?

Or even Hillman!

Austin or Grumman?

It’s been a few years since I have used an Avenger throttle…..:D

Here is my Avenger throttle it looks quite different, the first throttle shown is very close to the Stearman but those do not appear to have friction control on them? it also appears to be designed to fit to the RHS of the cockpit?

That’s right, there is an extra lever for the supercharger control. There is no prop lever, because it is vernier type push pull control on the instrument panel on the Avenger.

Possibly a Stearman..

I doubt this is off anything the size of an Avenger, but it is an American throttle quadrant, and probably from a US-designed aircraft. I would have thought it was off something much smaller and more basic, as there are no RPM or Supercharger levers which almost always appear on quadrants from aircraft with big engines, like the Avenger. I would guess it’s from a small trainer or liason aircraft.

All the best,
Richard

Thanks but I already have a Grumman avenger throttle and its different from this with an extra lever?
