Hi All,
I need help. Do any of you kind people know where I can lay my hands on a Turner adapter kit or parts there of. I have the main body but the gauges and other adapters have “gone walkabout”
If anyone has any ideas, please p.m. me – or, reply with any assistance via this forum.
Thanks for your time…..
Steve

Hi Crofty
I know it has been a while since this post, but do you still have the Turner Inflation Kit and would you like to sell it?
Regards

As the OP hasn’t been seen since 2005, it’s probably safe to assume the requirement has been satisfied!

A complete set bar the Schrader adaptor was brought by my lot for 200 pounds.. LAS Aero sell new kits for over 2 grand.

Hi Andy B
Many thanks for taking the time to search out the bits !
I think i’ll almost be there with what you have found, although i think the JP has to have a further flexible adaptor to mate with the inflation valve, through the wing upper surface access panel ?
I’ll arrange to come down to Brunty in the near future, and we’ll work something out as you say, can’t think of anything i would rather donate to than the Q sheds, just a little bit jealous though, we’re still outside at present, like yourselves, and that wind is biting again now !
I’ll drop you a PM when i get a set of dates free, probably in a few days if thats o.k ?

Hi chaps, have had a good look though our stores (lots of boxes) and come up with this kit of parts for you, only had enough bits to make up one unit,


You didnt say in the request what pressure you need on your accumulators, so I had a rumage and found this one
We do have others if the pressure reading is to high for what you need, this particular one is for Lightning services pressure
Let me know if this is any good and we will take it from there, maybe a Q shed donation ??? 🙂
Cheers.

Thanks Andy B, look forward to any possible fruits of your search !

Slightly OT Who was Mr Turner, presumably the inventor of the eponymous adapter?

Hi, we are up at the airfield tommorrow giving 728 a little stir, I know we have a box full of spare bits from Turner adaptors, I will make a point of digging all the bits out and see what I can come up with, will get back to you over the weekend or possibly Monday.
Cheers

Turner Adaptor
Hi AF, JP
Looking for the same Turner adaptor to get my main legs topped up, but the link does’nt work for me, or the site has a security issue which won’t let me in, can you tell me what the site is please, or anyone ?

You can get Turner Adapters from these people.
They were pretty expensive though last time I bought one. 😮

Hi All,
I need help.Steve
You said it.

I’ve been on this quest myself and drawn a blank. LAS advertise the bits but boy you really don’t want to know their prices! I’ve tried HM Sales at Stock and some of the other surplus dealers like Anchor Supplies but no-one seems to have the bits, or they just don’t know what to look for. UK Surplus (MOD disposal Agency) probably have pallet loads of them at Stafford, judging by the way everything is going out of service, but then again we both know how half this stuff just gets slung in the skip when a Squadron gets the axe! Good luck and if you find a load, buy them up and remember me! 🙂
If I find a load Ill give you one, and a turner adapter — HA HA….
Thanks anyway,
