Aircraft Wheels ID

Thank-you Crimea, that's an incredibly useful resource. Unfortunately, having run through it, I can't find the reference AH50286 - unless I've missed it. Many close, but no cigar. Very many thanks.
Regards,
Richard

Yeah, I glanced through but didn't see it either. Hopefully something will crop up. W waroff or S stona may know.

Confirmation from the RAF Museum that the AH10020 wheels are from an Airspeed Oxford.

Great. I take it they didn't have info on the other wheel?

Not asked about that one yet. Helpful possibly to have a rough idea first, to avoid asking them to run around too much, as may not be RAF. If nothing comes up here I'll just go ahead and ask them.

The Oxford manuals arrived today and I will scan and post them as soon as practical. I did not look if there was an Instruction on the wheels - will leave that until I have scanned the docs.

I did not realize the RAAF operated them into the 50s. That makes it quite likely that the Dunlop wheel replaced a wheel from a manufacturer who went out of business post war.

Many thanks for that.
