So how do you power up your cockpit? Anyone have a solution that can plug into a wall socket?
This is how we put power on WH779 beats having to use our 28v aircraft battery’s that don’t last long…

Output Current 100Amps 2.725 Kw
Day two 1st Sep.. I Started with Some more rubbing down after a few hours me and Julian Warren set about fitting the new Nav’s window… So at long last 791 has a Nav window again… After that job we removed the pilot’s seat and the pan from the nav’s seat so Hazel can start the long job of cleaning the cockpit out.. Last job of the day was to open the flare-bay doors and I’ve got to say it looks good with them open… We also found time to fit the new flying control locks… Not bad for day two…
I thought I’d post this as a separate item as I suspect a fellow forumite will be able to keep us posted with photographs from the project. 😉
Details about the start of refurbishment work on Canberra PR.7 WH791 at Newark Air Museum have been uploaded to the NAM website this morning!
Great Idea T/O… I will start to post photo’s and any news on WH791 refurbishment hear as it happens…
We started work on Sunday 25th Aug 2013… It’s going to be a long road but it’s one we need to go down if we are to save this great aircraft…
I started the long job of sanding down the 7… Following round with etch Primer where needed… I also fitted a new Handel to the crew door as it was missing so now we can lock the aircraft… I also got the two blanking plates out of the forward camera hatch not bad for day one.
Loaded up a ready to depart for Elvington tomorrow around 7:00am Photo from Andrew King, one of the Tbag members…
If you put the Hyd rig on to the aircraft you can close the main undercarriage doors with the selector valve up in the Undercarriage…
Just found my old photo’s out… You can see from the photo’s below how it’s done This is Vulcan XM575…
I’d like to say A Big Thank you to all at Newark for putting on a Fantastic event yet again… We always look forward to this event each year.. Plus a Big Thank you to all the Cockpiteers and Exhibitors for voting for WH779 in the Cockpiteers Cockpit Award.
