[ATTACH=CONFIG]229051[/ATTACH] nice finds Elliot,the Whitley one looks a similar set-up to the Stirling….was it also operated remotely..?as it has the cable drive attached.

How big is it please?

No cushion..it was empty inside…think I sold it at North Weald aero jumble…..1990?

Good score on the ex-Whirlwind seat! Always enjoy hearing about the rescue of a vintage relic like that.

Here’s a different (and somewhat newer) M-B bang seat, a prized “exhibit” in my loft since I moved here in 1995 (seat acquired in 1987)…this was the first officer’s seat in HP Victor K.2 XL191 that crash-landed at Mt.Hope in June 1986.

The A1073 between Spalding and Crowland sits on top of a very high bank. Because the soil is mainly silt, the banking was made stronger, with X WW2 tanks. I have seen photos of these tanks, in some photos, an old timer showed me many years ago, so that myth, is a true story, and not a myth.
