RAF Engine Cowl Panel

Fri Jun 27, 2014 10:24 am

Got this a couple of weeks ago - claimed to be from a Wellington - but it has been on a hillside for 70+ years and is suffering some corrosion.

It is RAF and from an engine cowl.

Remains of an offset rectangular hatch.

The original piece was a lot longer.

Just cannot see it on any images of a Wellington

This piece is 23 inches long x 12 inches wide (max)

Anyone know what inspectors stamps A9CB could come from ?

A second rib has 100 on it - no other markings legible.

The green paint is RAF Dark Green.


Thanks for your help
