I'm looking for any data relating to the Whirlwind. This will be used to build a 3D model and insert it into Flight Gear's sim.
Pilot notes
Maintenance manual
Detailed drawings, engineering if possible.
There is a photo in "Osprey - Aircraft of the Aces #079 - Bristol F2 Fighter" page 76, which shows A7194 with a slightly different scheme, the fin is white with dark serial numbers. It gives the location as No1 Sqn AFC at El Mejdel. Photo credited from Australian War Memorial via Colin A Owers...

As it has some logos on the props and they are different to the one posted here.
Could someone explain to me how the propeller pitch indicator FL.18503 worked. I found that 10 mins on the clock = 1 degree of pitch and that for the Bf109E1 it has a range of 22.5 to 90 degrees (feathered). With two hands and no numbers it does seem a bit odd.
Yes it is a late Mk.I, so I need to make sure I do put in the later stuff. The model I'm making has the two bladed wooden prop, the flat canopy and the initial cockpit fittings. It didn't last long in service as the enhancements came quick over the first few months of the war.
I will be making...
Looking for some good drawings of these two turrets to make a detailed 3D model. Would be happy with one of the other, as only number of Vickers GO guns was different, and some mounting details.
I have the:
- Beaufort maintenance book (AP1580 A&B) one drawing, but unclear as to how it...
Requesting info on the Skua, for building a 3D model. I have a few plans, low quality, and the Mushroom book as well.
Looking for detailed plans, engineering or manufacturing drawings would be great, big ask.
Good cross section drawings would be a big help.
Looking for drawings showing the wing and tailplane stations. I bought the Beaufort I II AP1580 A&B book, from www.military-aircraft-phots.com, which is great but only has fuselage stations, no cross sections of fusealge or any wing, tailplane stations.
Now I believe the Beaufighter uses the...
I'm looking for any data on Beaufort, to enable a 3D build. I have some pics of the cockpit section located at the Australian National Aviation Museum, at Moorabbin Airport. They have done a great job on the cokcpit.
I've seen some drawings from a technical manual but have been unable to...
