As it looks to be double glazed I again would suggest a pressurized aircraft, the sighting bubble as used on the B29 springs to mind.

IMHO the perspex in the pics is much flatter en probably has a larger circumference.
Could be lens distortion though.

LORAN is long range navigation used in ships (initially?) and aircraft.

And the D VII is in Germany, wasn’t there a dispute a few years ago about it being a Dutch owned example being “stolen” by Hermann G. himself?

Indeed, very exciting news, depending what’s left down there and in what condition. Fantastic how Karl always keeps the Halifax flame burning.
Would be nice if IWM would commission Rescue 57 Canada to build the second set of wings and using the cockpit of PN323 to reconstruct another
Halifax. You can never have too much Halifaxes.
I will be donating to the Canadian project(s) (as I always have in parts and drawings), who is with me?

Not to mention the Australian Hampden or the Bicester example that were scrapped in the mid fifties.
Where is that timemachine when you need it.

I think British bomber, that bracket was used in the Stirling and Halifax for sure.

Beautiful engines.
Article by John Parker? Sounds familiar.

It was usual practice to test every (for instance) 100th item from the productionline to check for quality or tolerances. Handley Page did check every 100th
Halifax. Despite being built in large scale production, performance could vary from aircraft even when built just after one another.

I wonder if “Ce*nturion” reads this. They are British by the way, the “thingies”
