Many thanks!

For sure very nice photo!! I could get in touch with the seller and agreed on a price for this one and three additional ones. Regrettably I can't share them because the buy was a joint acquisition between my own project and the project Spitfire AA810 - Restoring Sandy's Spitfire. However, I have...

You could measure the nut and bolt too. If it is a metric size or not...

It sure does...but the dimensions of it don't match up with a side cap example. Thank you for your thoughts though...always appreciated!

Awesome!

Yes...Terry we do. I'll ask our heavy drop boys. I'm not that familiar with rigging these loads. I only jump full kit out of C130s and only prep our own door bundles. The logistic chaps are rigging and dropping our pallet loads. But I'll ask them. Cheers Sander

Not a clue...didn't see it either in our jump kit. Another thought...perhaps radio/ comms equipment related. Part of a pole antenna set-up....rigging lines?

A thought..the number 131 on the top part of the plate...perhaps it refers to the MG131 machinegun And if so...since both the Fw190 and Me109 were equipped with the MG131 it will not be possible to determin the type only with this plate. Long shot....if you are able to clean up the part were it...

Sure will do:thumbright:

Thanks for trying...it is indeed a difficult kit to find.

Thanks for checking Terry. Much appreciated. Aviation megastore no joy either...

Hi guys, A friend of mine is looking for this kit. I believe it came out around 1999. I would be grateful for any info locating one. Cheers, Sander

Many thanks for looking and will certainly contact the RAF museum. Cheers Sander

Thank you for the reply. Attached a link to a short video showing a bit more of the exhibit.
