On the right side of the cockpit, below the pilot's right thigh, there are clips for something. We can't find out what it is. Anybody know?
The orientation is a bit more upright than the photo suggests. The fingers point to the clips. The other bracket may be a stopper to prevent shifting in flight.
Also, we're looking for an original, or very good scan, of an RCAF Hurricane manual -- NOT the RAF one, which is commonly available. So far we only have this, and the quality is poor, especially the images.
Thanks!
