I prefer the earlier Hunter grip. However, it was found to be difficult to trim in pitch (big button, high stiction etc (not a problem for todays texters!!). Hence the later grip design. I have a Hawker drawing listing the many Hunter mks and applicable many diff Hunter grips.

Mark is the Vulcan expert. I so prefer the Vulcan B2 grip with its chunkier feel!.

With WW2 German grips, what would K10 or R10 mean Steve?

yep, had the F16 grip and thrott from you. I would debate the ‘best Dunlop’ grip – but then again I would, wouldnt I! I would like a new Tonka one too, but it is expensive. I have a GR1 grip and feel it is one of Dunlop’s best.

I picked up my B17 formation stick up from Philly yesterday. Relief to get it safely here!

Is it me or does that compass tray look wrong on the back edge…
For beginners I would use `A` type aircraft rivets as they are soft enough to use with commercial aluminum .That cockpit door looks aweful.;)

Nope, you are right Ross, it is wrong on the back edge. I have some formers for the compass bowl….might make another one….But lots of work!!!
