I wasn't defending the product at all, believe me! I would say they have been made down to a price........
-
You will not get a quality replica for that price.
-
Almost certainly aircraft, they will know on the FlyPast historic forum.

The Centaur at Benouville is indeed a veteran, the one at Hermanville is a Cavalier turret stuck on a Centaur Dozer hull, put there by the IWM in exchange for a Churchill AVRE, so not a D-Day veteran at all!
-
The camera ship was a B-25.
-
Quite. You only have to get paid £250,000 a week and kick a ball about to earn the label today.:undecided:
-
Oh ha ha. :rolleyes:
-
The what bars?
-
A few ARVs in that bottom pic and a VII called Giraffe!
-
My Cromwell landed on D+1 but as no Cromwells landed on D-Day itself, that's close enough for me!
-
That Tiger in Sweden was not used in Band of Brothers, it was built for a series that never went beyond the pilot. It is on a T55 chassis and the turret is built on an Abbot turret and ring.

BS381C still has a Light Stone, no. 361 so probably the same. RAL 1001 is very close, though a touch too light.
-
The only one you that you know of, there is a lot of difference.... -
introduction Hello from Suffolk.

Hi Sam, good to see you here. -
Batteries for wireless sets.
-
It is a mechanical part that physically stops a gun running back from battery. If the run out press loses pressure, elevation can allow the gun to run back.
-
Correct. The subject of this thread and mine, both in the UK, the Belgian Army Museums VC and Grant Rabuse's in the USA.

AEC Mk II Armoured Car model build engine photo help needed.
Adrian Barrell replied to KevinT's topic in British Vehicles
I have some manuals for the various AEC armoured cars, I'll have a look and see what's in them. -
I use one in the Sherman, it's an excellent device!
-
I'll swap it for that oil filler pipe Bob..........
-
US ammo came in both styles of packaging but there was also British ammo which came in a wooden box.
-
Two different tanks P-O. The one in the US came from Argentina in the 1990s. Carls old one, the one that was at Beltring is still in the UK.
-
It's LOY D, not Lloyd! You probably knew that Andy.....
-
Lance, the gauges are not the same. Cromwell is an 87PG/240 where the tube is 240" long Humber Scout is a 97PG/192 where the tube is.......192" long. The 87PG gauge is 0-160 PSI and the 97PG is 0-100 PSI but some illustrations show both and frankly, either would work fine. Out of interest, Centurion ARV uses a 87PG/312 and is a potential source. Obviously, the longer tube will work in all installations.
-
Ok, that's not the right gauge then! Originally, it used a diaphragm sender with a sealed tube to the gauge. This avoids having engine oil under pressure routing through to the panel with the potential for leaks.
