Victor Nosewheel Tubes – any use?

Going through our pile of stuff we’ve come across a few Victor/Vulcan nosewheel tubes. They’re still boxed and chalked, stored in the dark etc. Appear fine. These any use? Drop me a PM and I’ll talk to the boss.

We’d love to have some more help looking after the PT-19 and assisting with our rebuilds, particularly anyone with tin-bashing, machining/milling experience, and experience of component inspection and overhaul procedures. We’re based in Suffolk.

Anyone assisting gets the satisfaction of breathing life back into these old things, not to mention the opportunity to fly in the Cornell and enjoy a few good team BBQ’s.

If anyone is interested drop me a PM.

Cheers,

Above info is slightly out of date. The PT-19 Cornell will also be present in one capacity or another, weather permitting of course.

We were meant to have flown already this week for a few hours. Ho hum……

PT-19

I understand that the PT-19 that displayed last year will also be there in the static this year.

Here’s hoping for some good weather. Well, OK, at least no rain.

Looks like a great line up.

I can’t comment highly enough on the show. I had the pleasure of going last year and it’s well worth the long drive. Will be going again this year, here’s hoping for high temperatures and a low pollen count!

Queen Stand

I think I popped a request for one of these a while ago, alas no joy yet. We’re fitting a GQ to the Fiat so need one to allow us to start stripping the engine.

I’m not sure one of these would be any good for running a queen. Too narrow and unstable I would have thought. A good trailer chassis with good wheels and an appropriately wide wheel base suitably modified would be a much more appropriate bet IMHO.
