Gateguard,
I know of a fellow who is BIG on nose art. His name is Clarence Simonsen. I will see if I can dig out his email address.
Todd
Beautiful turret! That’s quite the collection in the background of your photo’s. Any chance we could have a photo tour?
P.S
Can I have the Whitley photo on the wall in the second picture!?! 🙂
Todd
Nice pics Bisfit! Thanks for sharing. It’s too bad the weather was terrible…

I’d love a private tour of Abingdon and Stanton Harcourt with some ex Whitley pilots. I’d pay just about anything!

Here’s a couple that don’t mention particular planes…
Skypilot. I believe it was by Eric Burden and the animals.
Jetpilot. System of a down
Philo,
I was sure I saw some similar stopwatches for sale at Spitfirespares.com.
I believe they were listed under “Instruments”.

Hi Kev35,
Yes he was from Solihull. He was training at 10 OTU ABingdon on Whitley P5057 crashed Waen Carno, Powys, Wales. His parents were Percy Douglas
and Dora Sellars also of Solihull. My Great Grandparents were in contact with his family 60 years ago and several attempts to mail them in the mid fifties
were made also. The letters came back as “MOVED”. I can’t remember which papers I communicated with. I have written so many papers/libraries for other obits… I’d appreciate any help you could offer!
Cheers,

Hi Nermal,
