Hi All
Think i have enough with one Lightning think i’ll leave this one to someone else. Saw it at cockpitfest last year it’s very nice, needs a proper colour scheme though.

Hi Andy/Mjr
I got a copy of the training notes for engine systems on lightning’s. Tried to read it flooded the old gray matter, so gave up 😀
Glad to see you two are getting the hang of it

Hi All
Yes the B.2 did indeed have a sliding panel and it was later changed to the hinged panel on the K.2 (That will teach me to check next time!) Only ever been in the K.2 (Just once or twice, eh Ollie)

Hi All
Bri,As far as know the sliding draw was only a the Mk.1 Victors the same panel on the Mk.2 hinges upwards.In case anyone is wondering why it’s to give access to the bomb aimers position in the nose.
