I posted a load of wants and parts available for trade at the time when the Forum was going through a really hard time - coming to terms with its new incarnation - and I think that my post got no airplay at all, and the whole thread seems to have disappeared into the past. So I am trying again!

I'm looking for parts for single-seat Vampire and DH.108 projects:

Smiths Desynn Position Indicator ('Transmitter'), eg 170FL, 315FL, as shown below.
Undercarriage Indicator, nose wheel type, 6A/1009

Sensitive ASI Type F-1, 106A/1110
Fuses 5C/881, 10 amp, type S
Fuses 5CZ/550, 40 amp, type E
Radio Control Unit Type 295, Y10L/151
SCR-695 Selector Unit Type BC-965-A - Y110L/59A

I have a few Hurricane fuselage (fish) plates for trade. Two from joint A two from D and two from further back in rear fuselage. Good for static cockpit build. Would consider swap for other plates from joint AB-GH cockpit section or tube end fittings from same section. Can email pics if you send me a p.m. and let me know what you have got. Thanks.

I’m looking for two air inlet ducts similar to the one pictured. This one is from a Chipmunk and ideally I’m looking for something very slightly more tapered at the rear end and around seven inches long - although this type would work just as well.

Thanks in advance.

Up at NELSAM, we have a number of surplus Chipunk engine panels that may have said item attached. I will have a look in the storage container at the weekend

Rather than ask for something specific, we're after anything Stirling related either to buy or to have loan of if possible. Anything that can give us information to take the project forward such as crash relics etc as even the smallest parts can be of use

TIA

Not sure if there is a 2020 thread running for this so posting here:

 

On the lookout for a either an overall manual or IPC for a Martin Baker MK9 Type II (Jag fit) seat.

Always interested in pretty much any other Jag bits and pieces, cockpit or airframe related.
