Off-topic alert:rolleyes:
I have a “Captains of Aircraft” map base-dated 1944 with a pencil route for a raid on the Rhein Docks at Dusseldorf. It show as all the turning points for outward and return, would it be easy to use this information to find out the specific operation?

The big wireless looks like an early type R1155 which could be from a wartime bomber. It has been ‘improved’ by a radio amateur and some of the controls are missing but it could be restored to look right.

As Peter says the rest is 50s although the Beam Approach indicator (o, I , L & R) could also be from a wartime bomber.

I should have said that the “a” files are the fronts and the corresponding “b” files are the text on the back, looks like no-one has downloaded the text side yet :confused:

Will scan more when I get a minute ..

Thanks for posting – reminds me of a Lancaster :rolleyes:. Is it going to keep the natural look or will it be painted?
