Hi Salutewwii
Im also trying to complete a RCAF Mk1 Hurricane instrument panel but like you have found it hard to source photos etc.

Not sure if you have seen the below link from this forum but there is some good information and you will see the panel i have on post 2 and 4.

If you do source any cockpit photos can you please post them on this thread, cheers as this is ongoing for me also.

I hope this helps.

Hi CeBro
Would you no whether the Hastings chairs headrest was a part of the seats frame or would it of been clamped to the frame in some way? as ive also managed to get hold of one of these a few years back.

Hi Bananasplits
Yes we have been in touch in the past on other forums and i have also seen those two Typhoon grips that you own two of the best i have seen.

A bargain purchase in obtaining the 8090 that you have, certain grips are around but you have to be there at the right second, the Shoreham grip i have for the Typhoon literally came out onto the table as i passed i purchased it straight away and was amazed when i found what i had, this was in my early days of collecting.

Just a real shame that the aerojumble circuit is getting smaller and smaller, come on guys theres got to be someone who can get the Shoreham event or similar reborn.

Sorry about the slight side track from the thread.

Nice relic

A great collection of artefacts that certainly warrants the extremely low charge of £2 entry fee.

Not a problem for me personally, i normally visit 4 or 5 times a year and im only to happy to pay each visit,

Good luck for the 2018 season.

I cant think of to many organisations who have the dedication and ability in getting this aircraft back to its former self and to transform it into an absolute legend. sure it will take a little time and above all expense but with the usual dedication of the volunteer’s and skill (they certainly have a talented workforce) they will eventually have an aircraft that will represent the story of the Bristol Blenheim.

What im most looking forward to is seeing its progress over the coming years, very exciting times for the Museum and its many visitors.
