While not an approved document the pictures show extracts from a Smiths catalogue which gives technical descriptions of their instruments (using the Smiths codes of 78RV for the indicator and 54MV for the generator) and generic installations.

Hope it’s of use.

No Sec 10B here either! But Sec 5L shows that 9959801 has a ‘special’ cap (no other cap details), hopefully a picture should appear here!

Hope that helps

Hi there,

I had a quick look through Sec 5UA,UB,UC,UD& UE but couldn’t find any reference to suppressors.

I did however find a Type M radio interference suppressor is Sec 5C and 5CY, sec/ref 5C/932 and 5CY/932, is this what you’re looking for? Dimensions are listed as 7.7″ x 4.1″ x 1.7″ weight 1.62lb

Sec 5CY (Apr 1955) has a note saying ‘for ignition coil on Vulture engine’ but the earlier Sec 5C (Feb 1945) listing doesn’t.

Hopefully that’s of some help!

Dave

Hi Andy,

I have a Feb 1952 copy of AP1086 Book 3 Part 2 Sec 5B, please see attached picture of the first page.

Although the listing does generally detail what aircraft/engine the cable was fitted to there doesn’t appear to be any breakdown for connector ident etc, the drawing numbers are provided for most assemblies and this would be where the detail parts would be found.

If you let me know the Sec/ref numbers of the items you’re looking at/for I’ll see if they’re in this edition.

Regards

Dave

Hi there,

Not sure if this is the info required and have only had a quick look but have found AP1275A Vol 1 Sec 15 Ch 9 relating to Mk1 and 2 brake pressure gauges.

Hopefully there should be a copy embedded here!

Reminds me of a few occurrences on F27 Dowty NLG where a similar thing happens on the wheel lever shock absorber mounting lugs, see here for a report on one such instance
http://rnsa.is/media/1433/2008-05-21_m07407_aig35_tf-syn_final_report.pdf

With the F27 there was a mandatory modification to carry out a heat treatment to the main aluminium parts that basically changed the specification from DTD5024 to DTD5104 due to instances of stress corrosion (and also extended the safe life of a number of compoents); although the gear subject in the report should’ve been modified by that time it maybe other landing gears produced in that era by Dowty are susceptible to stress corrosion.

As far as I’m aware the NLG on the F27 are still subject to regular NDT inspection on the shock absorber mounting lugs on the wheel lever amongst other parts.
