Interesting, thank you.
So is there a way of telling (like an index system) which pedals were fitted to different types, or is it a case of trial and error?
No idea on weight but its not excessive. I bought them cos i liked the look and condition. They also have a similar look (according to pilots notes) to Sturgeon pedals with the single bar and leather foot strap.
Its a remnant from VZ795’s windscreen that appears to of disintegrated when it went in. I acquired it from someone who was present at the site via another collector.
Corner section from the later flat type one-piece windscreen that was introduced circa 1956 and came equipped with a wiper. A ‘P’ clip still fixed on the reverse was for the wiring to the E2A standby compass.
Jules, whilst taking the photo did the caption in front of it not give you the answers you needed? Its been so long since i looked at this piece i cannot remember what it actually says.
David here is a photo of Firebrand TF.5A EK621 racing no ’81’ at Elmdon in 1949. This was i believe the eventual winner of the handicapped race involving both the Sturgeon and Hornet.
