    Oh …ok James…the circular section as part of a circle would be way too big for a turret ring I think..the rear turret being the smallest of all the FN turret rings.I did find a manufacturers stamp on the aluminium bracket.It is circular with 95 on top . ‘H&S’ in the middle and B underneath.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246714[/ATTACH] the armoured plate part is from EJ108 which crashed at moat Farm in April 1944.this other part came with the plate which is why I thought it may be part of the rear turret.Could the plate be some sort of improvised armour from underneath the gunners seating position?? I don’t know of any armoured plate by the co – pilots seat James?? Will post a picture of the other side later.

    Hi Martin

    I’ve been diverted a lot by damp in a friends house and other building work – but I made a good fist of some new flashing I am pleased to say!

    Still working on a video showing all the holes along the top surface of the Stirling – met some issues with the way the modelling software smooths over the fuselage which involves a lot of ‘fiddling’ to get smooth.

    Added a request to you on your facebook page for some dimensions :eagerness:

    Cheers
    James

    Sorry…been away in Glastonbury James…will check the FB page ASAP !!!

    Seems like an odd bit to pinch when there are much nicer more recognisable bits on display…it’ll turn up.
