    Ummmm dont think so, I think his is an Ex 5 sqd (cant remember the no.) F6 which is down south somewhere now, but you never know with Hugh :rolleyes:

    Yes I suppose the nose is salvageable, there’s nothing left mind you, its ripped (literally) apart inside.

    The owners, ummmm, less said about them the better, maybe someone else might have better luck, we asked nicely, but got knowhere

    So dare i say it but most wil end up as scrap?

    Bump!

    Can anyone help me narrow down what type of pannel it is.

    And would the instruments in my pannel vary from anyone link trainer pannels?

    Cheers

    I’ve been robbed. I was at the aviation museum in Dumfries, my wife had taken the dogs for a long walk and they struck! They did not touch camera’s and expensive things. They went for my RAF mementos. All my photo’s from the Binbrook era, of Canberras and Lincolns. Two Vol 1s, one for Canberra B2 and one for the Avro Lincoln Mk2. My GSM(Malaya) My Cadet Forces Long Service Medal and Clasp. They even took my Commandants Commendation for 28 years service! My wife puchased new medals to save the long wait through official channels. Headquarters Air Cadets replaced my Commendation. So if any of you kind folk have any photos from that era? If its Binbrook, all the better, if not as long as they are B2s and Lincolns and where to find the Tech. books The eerie thing is, they seemed to know where to go!!!

    Thats horrible, i mean if it had of been an camera or such then its easily replacable but still bad all the same.

    I shall keep my eye out when i look around various sites and bits

    Maybe it was someone that you know, seeing as they knew where to go and didnt get anything such as cameras

    Hopefully things will turn up soon

    The paint is in good condition because i recently sprayed it (with Halfords black)

    .

    ahh cheers ๐Ÿ˜€ it comes from a provost right?

    I think i will keep the link as it is as its part of his history, just needs a clean up

    Cheers guys

    hmm in the piccies you cant see it in great detail as it was only a mobile phone camera. I spose it looks fine and is the original paint so i could leave it.

    But what if i decide to repaint it…how would i do that?

    Cheers
