    IIRC they’re known as a type 3 and 4, with one being larger than the other

    0297375 – closest I’ve got is 0297373 which is part of the ballast box assy
    4291320 – closest I’ve got is 4291352 which is part of the nacelle; it’s definitely not like the bellcranks under the P1 seat
    6294364 – Closest I’ve got is 6294343 which is the Control C0ck at middle tank group

    Nearly there James, in aviation terms its known as a bellcrank. Knew I’d seen something similar in a photo somewhere, definitely not tank though as was my first thought:stupid:

    More book information noted on the NAM website, mostly with local connections to RAF Winthorpe – include the new Stirling book by Pino Lombardi. 🙂

    Thanks Howard for the plug 🙂

    cheers

    Also I’d expect that the flying hours of the NASA jets will be considerably less than that of an operational RAF one and consequently to have consumed less fatigue. We tend to fly the backside off our jets

    Hi all

    Busy few weeks for the Project. Last week we were guests of the Bomber Command Special Interest Group at the IPMS Nationals at Telford. We took the 1st Pilots seat and throttle box (Work in Progress), both of which generated a lot of interest and raised some welcome funds for the project.

    Latterly we have taken delivery of some more parts for the throttle box and rudder pedal assemblies. The throttle box parts have been alluded to previously (see post #534) and have been kindly manufactured FOC by Cambridge Precision Ltd along with those for the rudder pedals. The throttle parts in particular were a monumental task for them as they were very complex machining requiring special fixtures to hold them in place. The pics below will give some idea of the complexity and amount of work they have undertaken on our behalf; well done chaps!

    Interesting link Eric. Coincidentally, I’ve heard through the grapevine that there are plans to present relatives of the crew with a Bomber Command clasp at RAF Wyton on 16/12/15, has anybody else heard about this?

    regards
