Harness release(pg2 cont)

This is a nice little harness release and cable from a so far unidentified aircraft. It came with a collection of Beaufighter  instruments so it may be Beaufighter but not sure. contact me if you have any further  information. The Spitfire had a very similar lever for releasing the pilots harness in an emergency bail out situation.

A literal "jack of all trades", the Beaufighter served as a ground attack fighter, a night fighter, a torpedo bomber and an anti-shipping strike aircraft. It served in Europe, the Middle East and the Far East Theatres. It's heavy armament (the MK.VI carried six wing-mounted .303 calibre machine guns and four  fuselage mounted 20mm cannons as well as eight 90lb. rockets under the wing) and long range made it a devastating weapon wherever and however it was deployed. The Italians called it "il flagello di Dio", which meant the "Scourge of God" and the Japanese referred to it as the "Whispering Death". It obviously had a profound impact on it's opponents

Bristol Blenheim Throttle (pg2 cont)

Here we have a  throttle from a Bristol Blenheim. Please note this is from the English Blenheim and not the Canadian Boly. Clearly it is not in A1 condition as can be seen in the pictures but is a very rare item, all the levers move and as far as I can tell the throttle is complete is complete.

Brake lever bracket included

Bristol Blenheim/Bolingbroke Yoke (pg2 cont)

In superb original condition this is an extremely rare grip. This yoke is for the Canadian Built Bolingbroke which is the Canadian version of the Bristol Blenheim.

It differs in that the firing button is on the right as apposed to the left as in the British version.

British version seen under for comparison only the grip on the left is the one for sale.

As early as 1937, a prototype variant of the Blenheim, known as the Bolingbroke was flown. It had been requested by the Canadian government as a  potential replacement for the  AVRO ANSON in transport and training. This machine was taken on strength by the RCAF. A long nosed version was developed (to allow the pilot to see over the bombardier's prone position)

    £950

Bristol Blenheim/Bolingbroke Control Column

 (pg2 cont)

Again in superb original condition the control column for the Bristol Blenheim, identical to the version also fitted to the Bolingbroke. Almost a unique item there are very few surviving examples of this piece.

Handley page Halifax Trim(Page2 cont)

A really nice and extremely rare wheel for a remote D.F. loop drive (aerial). Would be located in the Wireless Ops position, of the Halifax. A/M crown so manufactured before 1944.

A/M 10J/10595

The second of Britain's four-engine bombers to enter frontline service, Handley Page's Halifax has forever lived in the shadow of Avro's superb Lancaster. However, it was a Halifax which became the first RAF 'heavy' to drop bombs on Germany when No.35 Squadron raided Hamburg on the night of 12th/13th March 1941. Between 1941-45, the Halifax completed some 75,532 sorties (compared with the Lancaster's 156,000) with Bomber Command alone, not to mention its sterling work as both a glider tug and paratroop carrier with the Airborne Forces, maritime patrol mount with Coastal Command and covert intruder with the SOE. The Halifax was also the only RAF four-engine bomber to see action in the Middle East. Built in six major variants (and numerous sub-series within these variants) which differed primarily in the type of engine employed, no fewer than 6176 Halifax's were completed for the RAF between October 1939 and November 1946

Original Early Battle of France and Britain Hurricane spade grip (pg2 cont)

This grip is the very first grip produced by Dunlop for the Hurricane. It is in superb condition and does not have the usual cut marks on the base. This grip has no corrosion and should be serviceable. This grip was used on the very first Hurricanes as can been see from the patent applied for markings. It is made from a slightly different material than the later grips.  Although the brake lever is missing it still has the original bolt to attach the lever and the locking devise for locking the brake. I can supply a repro brake lever if required for no additional cost.  The gun button functions as it should and I see no reason subject to the required checks that this grip should fly again.

AH 2040

Also fitted to other Wartime RAF Fighters.

Original Hurricane/Whirlwind Spade Grip 2 (pg2 cont)

This totally original spade grip is the same model as shown above but has been set up for a Harvard and is therefore minus its brake lever as the Harvard had brakes on the rudder pedals. It is however exactly the same grip it has the cable holder for the brake cable and the addition of a brake lever is all that's required for the  Hurricane, Whirlwind etc .

Original Hurricane/Whirlwind Spade Grip (pg2 cont)

A superb and extremely rare original spade grip as used in Hurricanes. It is stamped with the Dunlop serial AH 2040 and has an air inspectors stamp inside the stem.

£699

English Electric Lightning Grip (pg2 cont)

The only all-British supersonic aircraft to enter production, and the last all-British single-seat fighter, the English Electric Lightning defended United Kingdom air space for more than twenty-five years. By designing a twin-engine aircraft with the fuel volume of a single engine aircraft, English Electric produced a relatively light and extremely powerful fighter, but with the inevitable consequence of a lack of range.

Hurricane U/C Selector assembly (pg2 cont)

Here we have original Hurricane Undercarriage selector assembly. Not complete but a very rare piece.

Part nos A81823

The brackets which hold this to the airframe are very delicate and one has been snapped off, it needs to be slid over the tube any attempt to open up the bracket will result in the lug breaking off.

Airspeed Oxford/Mosquito Control Column and yoke(pg2 cont)

This is a control column and yoke from an Airspeed Oxford, the yoke appears identical to the one used in the Mosquito. The yoke and column are in excellent condition.

Airspeed Oxford cockpit shown below.

The Airspeed Oxford was an important British and Commonwealth aerial trainer that served through World War Two. The system appeared in two notable forms as the Oxford I and the Oxford II with a few sub variants sprinkled in between. Charged with the training of bombing and gunners for the Oxford I model and training of radio and navigation personnel in the Oxford II, the Oxford series as a whole was an indispensable addition to the United Kingdom - serving to train numerous aircrews

Dakota Yoke attachments (pg2 cont)

Here is a collection of parts which attach the control yoke of the Dakota to the control column.

£85

 

Heavy Bomber camera control (pg2 cont)

This is a mint condition Control for the camera on heavy bombers to capture the fall of the bombs. It controls the flash release and is marked in thousands of feet. Would have been fitted to many types of Heavy Bomber including the Lancaster. I am not sure if it was fitted to smaller bombers or recognisance aircraft but this is a possibility.

£275
