    awesome thanks for posting, didnt know the whole thing nearly was still there all this time, assumed the aircraft was clustered all over the beach etc seeing as theres so many geodetic “litter” everywhere, would this of been near milltown runway approach?

    ah yes it probably is, when im on these beaches my minds “brainwashed” into thinking every metal part is aircraft when theres a good chance its not like this one lol, blind with my eyes open in this case

    I went for a walk near that area where you found that piece, I found this strange thing, anyone know if it is aircraft related? long and quite heavy:

    Yes, of course. If there are any special instructions on how to do this, please let me know. Thanks.

    I sent you a Private Message a while ago, did you get it?

    on second thought I dont think the bodywork piece is wellington, Ive cleaned a little and found 2 serials “BZ9 Y8?6?B?0?53” and below it “25529 1077” how can I clean off this black sea salt? I see a circular stamp but the black “paint” is blocking what it says.

    edit: im starting to think the specific piece is from a Warwick…

    back at the coastal beach again near milltown/lossie after the ice winter storm, it washed up an ejection seat, and some really nice big wellington pieces, would love to know what jet the ejection seat relic is from it has “martin baker aircraft co ltd” on the data plate, initially thought jaguar jet but underside has 1988 and 1989 dated so tornado?? hopefully someone recognises the wellington pedal or level type contraption, it has vABL 40 stamp so thats vickers, other serials too and what looks to be “1938” as one of the stamps on it
