Guys,
I picked this one up at Speyer yesterday.
Marked AC1400 it was used in the following types :- Attacker , Firebrand, Vampire, Meteor & Wyvern. My sticktop has a manufacture date 1957, so that rules a couple out from this list !
It has the wrong brake lever fitted though. the “lock” on the stick is on the right ( looking from pilots seat ) the “lockscrew” on the brake is on the left. 🙁
The Brake lever is engraved
ACM 16286 ISS 5 8927AA & then some other numbers I can’t make out.
Does anyone out there have the “right” Brake lever ? Or can anyone Identify which Brake lever I have ?
60 sqn Javelin – air to air
This one is in my Dad’s logbook
It’s just a “normal” photo, about 4″*6″ I don’t suppose anyone has ever seen it before. I’m not sure how big it could be blown up to.
The flight is listed as 10 July 1964 with Mike Thomas as Navigator, ” H.L. + L.L. Battle & Close ( 2 of 4 )”
BTW, have you seen these ?
Chaps,
I’ve just taken delivery of this “beauty”
As you can see there is a knob missing ( red box ). As far as I know it should look like the one in the green box.
Has anyone got a hidden stash or a good supplier ? PM me if you’d prefer not to post publicly
The clock is in the UK at the moment, with my brother. he reports that it is running fast ( gained 30 mins in 12 hrs ) & he can’t get the trip timer to move.
Is there an “idiots” guide out there somewhere ?
TIA Steve
Javelin U/C selector switch
Guys,
Does anyone out there have ( or know of ) a U/C selector switch for a Javelin – Part # 5CW/5122
here’s one I took a photo of
Also looking for any of the “Side” instrument panels. I have the Center & most of the instruments/switches/lights etc ….
TIA
Steve
I was there for the first time ( only Saturday ).
A “pre-order” with Bruce ensured that it would be a success.
But I came home with this lot ….
I met a bunch of interesting & like minded people. Oneday I can hopefully help them as much as they helped me with my JP / Javelin projects.
