Ah right john i understand now. If i remember correctley they are a B-17 turret and are exactly the same as the Lincoln mid-upper but im sure someone can confirm one way or another.
Would be an expensive item im guessing and rare ?

Excellent news. You must be very proud..
Well done and good luck in October.
Looks like some interesting bits coming up for disposal. i wonder if the canopys are h.Hurricane and not harvard ?
Sorry
Pagan.
Opps sorry i was a full 200% out. i think my last look at a lightning wheel was in 1971.
Maybe you should contact the guy and put him straight.
Just off to swat up on wheels
Pagan. it is 100% a lightning . skinny things on them to fit on retraction.
I think when you look back to films made in 60s thru to the 80s im sure many could be flyable with tinkering. but the old days like Southend HAM where a battery and fuel along with the likes of pilots no longer with us you could of seen Lincoln. Beverley and half a dozen others head into the blue.
As said earlier CAA will if they get a chance have you taken off to the padded room gor even asking.
Mind you I have often thought the same. now where is my straight jacket ?
Ooops!!!!…………….
Any guesses guys?
John.
LIGHTNING MAIN WHEEL BY ANY CHANCE John?
I noticed a clue in the title!
IMHO it looks very much like a Wellington blade.
A nice Item, actually it looks nice as a garden ornament !
Maybe an MP would like it for his moat:rolleyes:
