We are looking for an emergency escape window (the window with the red handle in the pictures) for our TBM Avenger restoration project. It will be finished in Royal Canadian Navy markings that does not have a turret.
PM us.
Thanks.

Although he doesn't always keep his inventory database up-to-date as much as some folks would like, Jay Wisler does have a TBM COD canopy listed. No idea if that includes the escape window.
G-730 TBM canopy assembly for COD version, good assembly, no corrosion or damage $1,200. http://www.warbird-parts.com/Happy Hunting.

I have the escape hatch that you need. It has the handles,linkage etc. in good shape except you would want to replace the outer covering strips ,inner parts look fine. Price $175.00 or trade for TBM spares or turret stuff. My e-mail is
