Hi

I have been once, did a guided walk a while ago.

I live in Stevenage so only about an hour away in the truck , so could give it a run out over there.

Is it for an event or just a run out ?

All the best

Alan

This is a great site, I've a 1942 WC51 and am lucky enough to have the original manual for it but didn't want to get it covered in grease.

I down loaded the manual from here and print the pages I need laminate them and use them, no damage to the original and I have a wipe clean copy to use and keep.

All the best

Alan

Hi go to a site called internet archive and search TM 9-808 you can view and save the manual for free.

Hope this helps.

Alan

Hi

Go to a web site called internet archive

type in TM9-801 then search, it will show you the manual which you can view or download.

I did this for both my WC51 & 353 saved a lot of money as manuals don't come cheap.

All the best

Alan

Hi

Try a company called SOOPA TOOBS in Hertfordshire, they stock just about every kind of tube you could think of

Tel 01920 822 266 or check Google for their website.

Hope this helps

Hello everyone, the Shuttleworth Collection, near Biggleswade in Bedfordshire, are holding a 1940's event with flying display, hangar dance and military vehicle displays on the 18th of June 2016. I am.a volunteer there on the aircraft and vehicles and have been asked to try and source some extra vehicles and displays. Some of the members from here have been before and will hopefully be able to come again to display, the collection is offering free entry to the event for exhibitors and as stated above there will be a hangar dance during the day with dancers and singers. This will be the second show of the new at home formats the Collection is trying which sees the aircraft and vehicles combined with displays on the public side of the fence, it will be a laid back show with flying happening throughout the day and will also have a visit from one of the BBMF spitfires during the afternoon. Please contact me if you are interested and I'll pass your details to the organisers.
