    The info you gave me is for a Mk1 Vulcan but I have just found out that the parachute I require was for the later aircraft fitted with the swivel type seat with the quick egress system. The parachute pack  was located in the seat with a separate seat restraint harness which I have.  I am told the parachute type is a BK MK46/49. An internet search turns up nothing so I wondered if anyone can throw any light on the subject and especially the manufacturer. 

  2. I am trying to identify and locate a backpack parachute used by Vulcan rear crew members. I have been told they were  mk43.  Can anyone confirm this or know the correct stores reference/ identification numbers or if they were used in any other aircraft?  Any help would be much appreciated.

  3. I am a member of a small aviation museum and we are trying to obtain an RAF pilots mk4 1960`s era life jacket. These jackets are bright orange so easily identified.  If anyone  knows of one for sale please contact me.
