My money would still be on a Pup prop:

Unfortunately, unless you can find someone with an in-depth knowledge of prop profiles, you’re stumped

Shiny shoes

Thanks Bruce! Just didn’t want to tread on toes etc….

|RLWP: The toolbar at the top was commented on by someone recently as being nice and clear and clutter-free… Hope that you’ve found your way round now? 😮

Yes, I’ve got it now. Because the page is deep I’d scrolled down and the toolbar had disappeared off the top leaving me with a big image that does nothing and a bunch of facebook stuff. Now I know, it’s OK but it’s perhaps not the best way of making the content easy to find.

Following the Firefox comments, your site works OK in Chrome.

XF382 looked very nice when I was at the museum last week

That Bulldog vid looks a little ropey, as said – trees!!

Wrong bridge (as pointed out by Beermat)

Severn Railway Bridge:

From Wikipedia

This shows the damage caused by two barges hitting it in the fog

Annoyingly, blowing the image up doesn’t reveal if it’s RAF or RFC

It’s a long shot but, is there anything on the bottom of the seat, a makers badge perhaps?

Really there’s very little to go on. From pictures I have some Pups and Camels had props with that shaped prop

Could you please explain what is meant by “the clue is in the mis-typed link in the OP”?

Hi, Linrey has explained what I meant. There are two pieces of carving on your seat, the one in the back is very indistinct and the one in the seat didn’t get shown because you made a slight error in posting the picture. I was wondering if clear images of those carvings would lead some of the members here to a conclusion.

If it’s really a Sopwith Pup prop then I am consumed in jealousy – far more than if it was a Spit prop splinter

Exercise extreme caution when using news reports in the Daily Mail as a reliable source, it has become a cesspit of twisted biased reporting and is the cause of much unwanted worry to those who read and blindly accept all of what is written as fact.

This is what actually happened at the 2010 protest http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/287565

Thank you for this

Richard

If anyone fancies it, here are the maintenance and parts sections of AP1709 as held at Hendon.. Not my research, but instead the result of a remarkable co-incidence – THANK YOU JEFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Off-Topic:

On visiting the RAF museum website, I was amused by this:

I was wondering if I could specify the delivery mechanism for that “gift”. I’m sure I can think of a few places for it to be “dropped” off
