• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Need pictures

Gee Nact is there anything I can be of assistance of?

Any other information you might need or want for your aircraft?
 
The external front turret view is from Profile 189 - Short Sunderland.

All the others are from Clarke's 'British Aircraft Armament Vol 1 - RAF Gun Turrets'.

The latter is difficult to get - Vol 2 comes up on the Bay regularly but this one is much rarer. And if you are into turrets it's a must !

(I have a duplicate copy of each which I am saving for a rainy day....)
 
OK, here is the skeleton - don't have a good close-up of the turret in a Botha, but the Sunderland installation is very similar.

Incidentally, these turrets were all made by Parnall Aircraft.
