No looks like Marker flare cannister holders on this one,which were also fitted,in the AP for Mk 4 deleted front turret area is called `observers position`.

It look like part of the later foot pads on the range control pedals in the rear turret of Lancs.

The cream coloured box for the beam approach equipment always seem to be missing the rotary switch at the bottom left hand corner. Were they modified like this or has the scrap man butchered them for something shiny?

The Beam approach control box was made with just the electrics inside.The missing knob,which is not supplied with the new units even (had some boxed) operates a bowden cable which is constructed separately.

Hi Martin,

No, the junction box you see is completely new made using photographs taken by me and Elliott inside PN323 at IWM Lambeth and sockets I had from a Halifax electrical panel (which itself was in bad condition) as well as some I got from Alan. Next problem to solve is to find the plugs that fit onto them to complete the wiring. That job alone (apart from finding the plugs) will take a lot of time as well.
Do you have any Halifax junction boxes then Martin? Any idea where to find the various plugs (two, five, seven, eleven etc. pins)
Cheers
Cees

I thought you`d had a Hali Junction box off me at an aerojumble,sure it was you I`d brought one along for..maybe 10 years ago !!!I may have some junction boxes do you have any images you could post on here ?

There was a chap who had a wiring loom (not sure which part) for a Halifax,and also a Lanc one. The Project got an unused bomb bay wiring loom for a Stirling off him together with all the junction boxes. Last thing I heard though was he`d donated all his stuff to a museum near Kettering.

Didn`t you get one of the large junction boxes in the starboard side of the nose off me ?
