Mk I Hurricane screen (pg1 Can)

All pictures can be enlarged by clicking on them.

This is superb piece and almost certainly one of a kind. This type of armoured windshield located outside the windscreen, was only used by the British and German Fighters before WWII.

This example is an experimental installation for a Hurricane MK I. I have drawn in a transparent paper, in red colour, the contour of the piece over a drawing of a Hurricane windscreen as an illustration. Apparently the set was completed with a curve piece made out of transparent Plexiglas, which most probable shape followed the contour drawn inn green.

This is a superb original canopy from a Hawker Hurricane. It has been examined by experts and is considered restorable to flying condition, I welcome any inspection prior to purchase from any serious purchaser. These canopies are practically unique especially in this condition. Although I have had several Spitfire canopies over the years I have never seen one of these canopies for sale. This is a unique opportunity and is only availalable because we are breaking up our project Hurricane.

Here is Lancaster canopy for the FN50 mid upper turret. Click here to see this in armanents. 

This is a Canopy for the Chipmunk. It has the windscreen and some other Perspex missing although the frame is intact and in reasonable condition for its age.

The Chipmunk replaced the  De Havilland Tiger Moth as elementary trainer for the Royal Air Force its first flight was on the 22nd May 1946 in Toronto and it entered RAF service in 1950

We will have to quote post and packing for buyers as costs will vary greatly depending on where its going.

Astrodome on a Warwick

Here we have an astrodome from as yet unidentified aircraft although I suspect this is a generic part as they all seem to be pretty much the same size..

An astrodome is a hemispherical transparent dome fitted in the cabin roof of an aircraft for the purpose of allowing the use of a sextant during astro navigation

Also included is an alloy replacement frame for the steel hoop, I cannot guarantee it fits as I have never risked removing the steel hoop to try it.

Here we have an original Spitfire canopy, this has been in my personal collection for many years and was intended for use on our MK IX Replica. We now have a new glass that we use, its more appropriate as it doesn't matter so much if it suffers a little damage. The alloy part of the frame is in good condition, the steel hoop is corroded as they always are. The Perspex is a little dusty and does have some minor scratches , no deep ones and no cracks. I believe this fits all MKs except the very early Mk Is and of coarse the low backs with the bubble canopy.

This will require a packing case so contact us before purchase for accurate shipping costs. You are welcome to collect.

This is a unique opportunity, the canopy and windscreens advertised are from the stock of a professional specialist, one of a very few left in the world who made and fitted Spitfire canopies and screens. He has now retired and all these items are one offs, once sold they will not be replaced. They were all made for flying aircraft but have minor flaws which have made them unacceptable for flying aircraft, perfect for Cockpit builders or static aircraft. This particular model has a very slight distortion in the side of the screen which is hardly visible. This screen was made for the Rolls Royce MK 19 Spitfire.

FN 4 Turret cupola (pg1 arm)

This is an incredibly rare FN 4 Rear four gun Turret cupola. It is in good condition "see pictures" considering its age and is rare enough to be almost unique. It also has its original doors again in good condition for its age.

There seems to be some confusion about this Turrets origins, however the chap I got it from told me His Granddad  removed it personally from a Lancaster although it seems it may also have been fitted to a Short Stirling at sometime in its operational life.

Nash & Thomson was established in 1929 at Kingsdon-upon-Thames by business partners Archibald Frazer-Nash and Henry Ronald Godfrey. The company was formed to develop the turrets that Frazer Nash had originated, and their designs were consequently numbered in a series prefixed "FN".

 For UK customers we can deliver or you may collect.  For customers who require shipping  and for international buyers this canopy will have to be transported in a crate and this will be an additional cost of around £50.
