No window, the oval section is covered in fabric.

Any ideas?

Mike,

It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Connaught Ranges. I almost forgot about the place! I was there quite a few times as a young cadet to use the rifle ranges.

Thanks for posting.

TT, thanks for the link to your pictures. That sure is a beast of a turret!

Isn’t the FN121 at the Air Gunners’ Memorial Room at The Yorkshire Air Museum equipped with a AGLT collimator?

Great pictures, thank you for sharing!

Are PA474’s turrets still powered?

Are there any examples of the AGLT scanning aerials still in existence?

I’ve ogled at the pictures of these items many times, but I think that I would be a victim of friendly fire if my wife ever found out that I had bought them!

Maybe someday………..

Hi Peter,

I doubt it’s the one hauled around to airshows by DND, the access panels above the wings were missing.

According to the websiet http://antonakis.ca/12102005.php, it was in storage in 1 hanger at Mountainview October 05.

Cheers,

Hey Peter,

While on my way to work this morning I passed the cockpit section of tutor 114037 being hauled by a DND pick-up & trailer on the westbound Hwy 401.

Hi John,

Nice find!

I’m also guessing that it’s from a Consolidated tail turret.

Hi Deryck,

I had a look through my notes and did manage to find some info on the emergency bombering computer. I hope it is of some use.

I’ll see if I have anything on the plastic instruction plates.

Wasn’t that a Vickers camera gun?

Hi Elliott,

Just kidding about the spares, but I’d certainly love to see more pictures of the cupola.

Have you been able to locate an actual Vickers “K” gun or replica?

Cheers,
