Thanks Cees

We are working on a 605 sqn airframe at the moment - strangely its TA122! I am in touch with the guys from 605 squadron and will ask the question. Would be very interested in any parts which might be suitable for incorporation into TA122.....

I'll investigate the other one as well, and we'll see what we can find!

Kind regards


Bruce
