Tonight I spoke on the phone with the guy who originaly sold all the windscreen parts to my friend and he still has some new manufactured and some original pattern parts left, including a unused draught excluder which I believe fits over the T section,

Ken, did you get my mail?

All the above information was obtained from my friend who I helped assemble the windscreen, he got it from the guy who sold all that he needed about 2 yrs ago, when we went to collect it all the guy still had original windscreen and new replacement parts left over.

At the present I do not any drawing number for the T section rear hoop or the Internal glass flange to hand but will look out for them when I visit my friend.

Hope the above is helpful

Sorry guys I haven’t responded to pm’s etc and my mail is full, my mum is a tad unwell at the moment so do not have time to search for stuff, hope you understand 🙂

Sorry to hear about your mom, know the feeling at present myself so my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Used in Spitfires

Not just in spits, used in most british built aircraft for the RAF/FAA from 1934 to well into the 1950’s, even saw a picture of one taken at the radio ops position inside the Washington aircraft .

[The critical measurement is the height for the elevator control tube on the column as this needs to line up with the bellcrank behind F11:p[/QUOTE]

Hi mate,

I am wracking to old grey cells here but I am sure I was told about 10 yrs ago of a guy in your neck of the woods by the name of Gary Oschdalin who had loads of spitfire bits including a full control column.
If no luck there then can you post a drawing denoting what dimenions you require and no doubt somone on here will be able to assist.
Am I right that you also need tail frame 20 measurments?

Are you sure these pics are of a replica????
fantastic achievement Ken
