Thanks Scott!:)
All items recoverd by DARRT (including main wheel tyre,Merlin engine ,prop hub+blade & tail oleo strut.) are still held by DARRT ,although the group is currently not active.
I also have this firing order plate which I think is RR Vulture?
Can anyone confirm this?

Perigrine
This is why I thought the firing order plate might be Perigrine ,because it came with this peregrine plate ,unfortunately the top half that would say Rolls Royce has been cut off.

Thanks Powerandpassion,thats great.
RR Eagle (1917, planetary reduction gear) propellor RH tractor firing order is 1A,2B,5A,4B,3A,1B,6A,5B,2A,3B,4A,6B
This is the same firing order reproduced on your suspect Peregrine engine plaque, so no doubt, as per previous correspondence, this comes from a RR engine.
I understand the Peregrine was a development of the Kestrel, but also came in RH and LH tractor, to allow contra rotating propellors.By font and style, the plaque looks “1940’s”, certainly not RR Eagle
So,you no doubt have a Peregrine engine plaque !Now, where have you put the rest of the engine !?
Does anyone know the Perigrine firing order?
Hi, I have a firing order plate that I think could be from Rolls Royce Perigrine.
Can anyone confirm this?

Shackleton.
Big lumps of Spitfire? Griffons a bit late for me: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121173039894?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
Matt – are the stud bolt spacings the same on the Hurricane and Whirlwind hubs?
Hurricane & Whirlwind wheels do not have stud bolt spacings !

I may start another “what’s this?” thread to identify them and their uses (as long as Key are happy for me to do so, of course). There might well be other Firefly related bits amongst it all.
!
Sounds like a good idea!
Did someone mention Firefly:),what was the other FAA stuff that came with the Booster coils?
I dont think ME -109E was telling the complete truth about his visit to the whirlwind site,i wouldnt hold your breath on that one.
It was probably said to scare people away from looking for the site.
