Thanks Tony – as usual 🙂

That’s my theory. No one here seems to know so I might head off to Hawkinge this weekend to take a look.

I went there about 10 years ago – didn’t find a sausage unfortunately… Interesting place though – it’s near the river Styx

Sounds similar to Paramythia as described in Charles Lamb’s War In A Stringbag.

Here are a few pics of progress on the Whitley centre section…

Some of the main members of the centre section in the jig:

This is one of the lower box section assemblies for the centre section – there are a pair of these:

Hmm wasn’t quite bare though? The mounting castings are very hard to find these days and expensive to make…

And a bare standard blind flying panel has gone for £425. Well well…..!

Very good money, if your the seller!

That’s odd – why would that be? They are not big and don’t look luminous

Hi.
Does anyone have an American-style Bendix or similar mag switch available please?
It is the Off / L / R / Both type I`m after, either with or without removable toggle / key.
It`s for the Griffon-powered Miss Canada IV:

Hi – I don’t think I ever had the ref number. If you send/email your drawing and diameter of the shaft (2ba, 1/4″ etc.) they should be able to find the item for you. They are very helpful like that.

Whitley ones too. Seriously though, you can buy these from light aero. I had a pair for my front turret a while ago.

I have a spare Boozer indicator if anyone is interested – it’s rough and is missing one lamp but there aren’t many around…
