the details below are just part numbers, you would need a date or year at least, aircraft code numbers, Engine or gun numbers would help in the identification too

SERIAL N° VACH 18042 = Vickers Armstrong Chester

DATE CK 2 = manufacture date I would presume

DRG. N° 28584128 = manufacturers drawing number

ISSUE AU = Drawing issue code,which would start A then B etc
this would be to allow you to tell what updated drawings you were working on to manufacture this part, also helps to know if maybe an inferior part is fitted

INSP PSC = I would think is the shop inspection code to quality control.

Maybe others can add more. and please put me right on some of my interpretation of the above.

Mauro, do you have any pictures of the crash site?

Hi Charlie,
The Aveling is very rare, its owned by the ‘Walton Hall Museum
Walton Hall, Road, Linford, Essex.’ I think they also have an aircraft tug fromm WWII which will be attending the 2005 Tractor event along with the Aveling

Our museum is the Thameside Aviation Musuem and we are base at Coalhouse Fort East Tilbury, Essex.
