Well we’ve made a start. Middle row far right in the first picture is now identified as the top of the flap lever. And in the second picture top left, the ‘tap’ shaped item appears to be a window latch.
Well now it’s been found let’s use it shall we 😉
Anyways my first visit to a Mosquito crash site bought up a few items as shown. Comments / I.d’s welcome.
Thanks FB. Next question is does anybody have a couple spare?
Can someone advise please on which switches are missing from this BAe-146 Control yoke as I’d like to make it complete?!
My goodness I’m glad to hear you’re safe and well Mr B after that incident.
Best wishes to yourself and your Biplane and a speedy recovery.
Yep. They were asking big bucks for it hence why I wanted to check that it was actually what the display said it was.
Yes definite similarities TA. Glad I left it be.
Thanks guys. It’s supposed to of come from a crash site of a Halifax III near Woodchurch in Kent and was recovered back in the seventies.
A-20 Boston / Havoc Control wheel?
Well it’s showing one bid at present, I wonder who!?
Now scheduled for auction at Gilbert Baitsons on the 19th September.
RAF MUSEUM TAKE NOTE !!!
Fascinating items as usual AM. The first control wheel is B-25, and I’m taking a guess at Short Stirling for the two piece second one?!
Well my B-50 Superfortress finds thread seems to of been lost in the mists of time by Key, so any guesses on what this was part of? It reads SAFETY 41M.
My initial thought was part of a gunsight…
Tha passenger was a freelance writer working for Key Publishing, and judging by his account of the accident is very lucky to be alive!..

Very commendable work as usual guys, it’s sweltering hot out there to be working on boiling hot Aircraft. The efforts being made to unbolt / unscrew items rather than simply to cut everything off are very commendable
