Hi all

I was clearing out a Barn and found this a few years ago. It has a 50v fuel pump, under the hatch. I was told its from a helicopter but no idea what sort any Ideas?

I saw this picture on here before...

Don't know what it is but it doesn't seem big enough to be worth dropping IMHO.

Or try the Helicopter Museum at Weston. There's a wealth of knowledge on such things.

But if they all start shouting "beadwindow" and talking about obscure nerve agents, experimental dispensers, unexplained inventory shortfalls, and black Vauxhall Omegas then I'd highly recommend washing your hands after touching the thing.

Yep, this picture has been around for some years and the trail keeps on heading to a western orientation mid east nuclear power before drying up.

I'd even suggest binning the OP as it WILL be identified and traced to your ISP (apparently) that's how the Belgian site got shut down.

Take care.

The Belgians, in particular, have recently been very keen on finding something north of the border...

It's in a barn in Kent apparently!
