 Sopwith Camel Cockpit right you can see the T&S to the right of the stick.

£499

WWI Turn & slip indicator (pg4 ins)

Here we have a superb piece. A turn and slip indicator  from a WWI RFC aircraft. So far I have managed to establish that it was used in at least the SE5-A and the Sopwith Camel as you can see from the cockpit pictures shown. How ever I suspect it was probably used on other aircraft types. This piece is over 90 years old and has some corrosion on the back as seen in the picture. This will be treated to prevent any further damage and can be repaired if required. The rest of the instrument is in good condition.

Engine temp Gauge (pg4 ins)

Engine temp gauge used aircraft with radial engines. These are sometimes fitted to Lancaster's engineers panel when Radial engines were fitted. Would also have been used in Sterling and Halifax. Used in early jets to pick up the temperature of the engine from multiple external sensors in the same way as it was used on Big Radial engines.

£45

240 MPH ASI 1942 (pg3 ins)

240 MPH airspeed indicator dated 1942. This ASi would be used in a variety of the slower RAF aircraft operating in 1942. The North American Harvard would be a suitable canidate.

MK IX D Rev Counter (pg 4 ins)

 

A Really nice early 1936 dated Mk IX D rev counter. For use in the 1930s RAF Bi Plane fighters such as the Gloster Gladiator shown under. It has one lug missing but this will not effect its appearance if mounted in a panel.

Oil Pressure Lancaster (pg 4 ins)

This is a brand new instrument in it's original box which was  intended for the Avro Lancaster Heavy Bomber. It is almost identical to the gauges which were fitted in other British aircraft such as the Spitfire, Hurricane, Mosquito and others. As you can see it is complete with a very long capillary tubing and banjo sender and should be in serviceable working condition.

Avro Anson Flap indicator (pg 4 ins)

 

A very nice flap indicator fitted to early Avro Anson's. It's been suggested that they may also have been fitted in the Westland's Lysander but I cannot verify that.

240 MPH airspeed indicator dated 1942. This ASi would be used in a variety of the slower RAF aircraft operating in 1942. The North American Harvard would be a suitable candidate. One damaged lug see picture, would not affect its appearance in the panel as it is mounted from the rear.

New Radiator Temp gauge (pg4 ins)

Click on pictures to enlarge

A very exiting find. Discovered during demolition work in an old underground store. As new wartime Radiator temperature Gauge complete in its original box having never left the factory. Superb and untouched for sixty years this gauge is a 12volt FIGHTER version and was discovered only 20 miles from Castle Bromwich England's main Spitfire factory. With these two facts in mind its almost certain these were destined for Castle Bromwich and a Spitfire. Perhaps sealed by bomb damage. I see no reason that these should not be serviceable subject to the normal checks.

A/M 6A/1480 dated 1943

£45

The Castle Bromwich Aerodrome Factory, built in 1940, is now occupied by the Jaguar car plant. The Factory closed in December 1945. It had built 15634 Spitfires including Seafire production, and a 305 contribution to Lancaster production. The first of which was completed in late 1943. I have a small quantity available.

With these two facts in mind its almost certain these were destined for Castle Bromwich and a Spitfire. Perhaps sealed by bomb damage. I see no reason that these should not be serviceable subject to the normal checks. The Oil pressure gauges are very much harder to find than the RAD Temp.

Dunlop Pressure gauge (pg4 ins)

AHO 1555

It has been suggested these belong in a Fairey Battle? Being a Dunlop gauge I would suspect a more widespread use.

The Fairy Battle has been delivered in large numbers to the R.A.F. and composes many of our first-line squadrons. It is an all-metal medium bomber with a crew of two. A Rolls-Royce Merlin engine of 990 h.p. supplies the power, driving a three bladed variable pitch air-screw. Armament consists of a fixed Browning gun in the right wing and a free gun in the back cockpit. Full night-flying equipment is carried, and the machine can attain a speed of over 250 m.p.h.
