Thanks Scott,

When looking at those photographs it is a pity to know that this was the worlds last Halifax left of the almost 6.200 produced, and it was scrapped some years later (nobody knew that W1048 and NA337 would be recovered from Norwegian lakes some years later). Having been inside her cockpit last friday made me think that a least a substantial part was saved.

Continuing the Halifax theme, I acquired a complete Halifax controlwheel and column assembly in excellent condition last evening. No history other than that it came from Germany. Now, where to find that throttle control box?
