Happy birthday Bruce. You have my sympathies – just turned 36
There should be some numbers on the base – if you can post them someone on the forum may be able to Id it for you.
Thanks guys
I have one, but watching closely!
Hi there – Maybe it’s from a Hastings? The 67 prefix might fit with that… Cees?
I saw that – funnily enough it was on sale at Shoreham many moons ago and I just missed out on it!
Nice bit just gone on
Dennis
Have you sent a pic to Hendon? They are pretty good with this kind of stuff.
Impressive sight Tim – that’s some find.
That would be great 🙂
That’s a large section of Whitley wing.
What aircraft are the two large wing leading edges visible in the background of the first picture from?
Sorry – it looks a bit similar.
I found a flare pistol lying on the surface on a mountain one – minus it’s grip! I assumed the grip was wooden and had rotted away.
Peter – the other broken parts are the remains of a pistol type grip from a US aircraft – Mustang, P-47 etc. You probably know that already but just thought i’d point it out.
Three programs eh? That’s impressive. I’d like to start using a CAD program for the Whitley. Is there a straight forward but very good program you could recommend at all?
Hi,
We do use Solidworks but this assembly we have done up in ProDesktop which is a students version of ProEngineer.We have three guys doing the designs.One uses ProD exclusively,the other uses Solidworks exclusively and I mix between the two,rather unsuccesfully that is..We also use CAD as sometimes it is quicker and easier in some places.
With the rubbers we might try a brake reconditioning shop.
Cheers
Stunning drawing Ross. Is that Solidworks?
Good luck with your seals – hope someone can come up with an answer for you – might be difficult…
Thanks Keith – wondered if that was a Wimpy tailwheel
Keith – would you mind posting the IDs of all the tailwheel legs? So far Martin has only pointed out the Stirling one. Thanks!
