That’s very sad Cees – I was extremely excited about seeing a complete Hampden cockpit. Don’t the RAFM have drawings you can copy?

Well, you can always start a Whitley cockpit. I have a lot of information and i’m sure I can find some spare parts for you. I just finally got a control column.

You know most of the 4 group crews trained on the Whitley before graduating the the Halifax 🙂

Hi Stuart and Al – is that flange on the end a form of manifold? Looks odd, but could well be the Wellington. Daft question but any part numbers?

Great work Cees – what’s with the decision to extend it?

I agree with Hindenburg – it doesn’t look familiar as an FN part…

Hi John – is there a specific spinner you are interested in? I have a drawing for an ES10 from a Whitley. At least one type of spinner was used on both aircraft.

Yes, it looks like Lanc to me too

It certainly looks like a Spitfire tailwheel – difficult to say for sure without the numbers….

TonyT –
Merlinpete is a hero of the highest order and the world would be a boring place without him. He’s also helped me a lot over the years – often at a cost to himself and he’s an excellent engineer and a nice guy to boot.

Please drop it!
