Hi Paul,
These are old ARCO air hose couplings/fittings found on many types of agricultural machinery.
Regards, Ned.
Thank you Ned
Kind regards & best wishes, Paul
I should have asked RAF before posting on a forum, my mistake.
I thought people on this forum would think I should have had an anwser by now & was pulling a blagg. My bad.
Regards Paul

this morning to find out what was going on, Mary wasnt there & wont be back until next week some time. After I explained to a lady called Belinda she said my original Email had been logged 20th Aug, they have a 20 day turn around so I will get an anwser by 17th September.
Thats it, she wouldn’t tell me anything else including when Mary would be back. I aksed if I could speak to anybody else she said there was nobody else I could talk to except Mary, sounded like she couldn’t careless.
BTW, I re aksed RAF London museum last week if the email addy they had given me was correct because I hadn’t heard back & they haven’t even replied….
Will let you all know what Mary’s got to say,
Best Regards, Paul
I receievd this back from RAF London.
Dear Mr H,
We received an enquiry from a Mr Paul H on the 20th August requesting to identify parts this has been recorded, it is possible that this may have been your original enquiry however I am unable to verify this as the email address do not match.
Please re-send original email sent out.
Thank you
Sincerely

I will re send & let you know whats said.
Thanks, Paul
Probably cow milking shed equipment or something then, definitely old farm land which is now in pasture. The area is littered with metal, mostly burnt with lots of molten alloy all over the place & there is a definite centre with areas showing big signals. I only collected bits that I thought could be identified, the next time its detected I will dig some of the deeper targets.
Still haven’t heard back from RAF London, will post reply when I do.
Thanks for your help.
Many thanks for your input.
I contacted RAF Museum London today with the same picture, they said,
The Royal Air Force Museum London: Hi Paul, Thanks for message. Great to see. For further information about the parts, please send your photo to our research department – [email]research@rafmuseum.org[/email]
Which I did so now waiting to hear back.
Will let you know whats said,
Thanks again, regards Paul
Looks like hydraulic vale/connectors, I got one apart at bottom of the picture.
The bit of metal to the right is solid alloy, no round edges on it just sharp looks like its been torn apart from all sides, must have been a large chunk of alloy, never seen anything like it before.
Hi Tony,
Does that mean that’s a positive ID that they are aviation parts ? It would be nice to know what we have here.
The sites on private land, the land owners have final word, I coudn’t give any site info up with out going through the powers above.
Hope you understand, thanks Paul
