    Could be. But I’ve always thought of air raid shelters as wide and low. This building is tall and thin but could be missing an earth bank ? Also why the pointed concreate top ?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Not sure,the tapered part seems to be inside the reduction gear. The photo is from a crashed (I think) Mustang in a very good local museum.

    Thanks Forestfan.
    Do you think that 58 MU would have covered North Norfolk ?

    Thanks 682al
    I think I will have to take some better photos with something to give an idea of size but I’m at work at the moment. It would be nice to know what the parts are as my intention is to offer them and the other parts I have got to a museum.
    Thanks for looking

    Thanks anyway. I,m fairly sure there is a Bomb sight on display in the hanger at East Kirkby so I will use that as an excuse for another visit 😀

    This part has got me stumped. I asked a workmate who is ex RAF but no luck there (He wandered off muttering how old do you think I am) One part of it seems to have a push over connection for a rubber pipe ?

    Thanks for the reply.
    So the Letters refer to the place where the aircraft was built and the numbers to the person doing the building.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply Stuart
    Just tried Aces High but could not find it and as you say I could not view the Galleries on Spitfire art so I will keep looking.
    Thanks for the help

    A bit like it but the airfield is disused and a more modern scene but the aircraft in the background has a ghostly appearance. Still a nice picture though.

    Mine too. But at least the lack of rain is keeping the weeds down. 🙂
