Identification

[JanisK]

Hi,
On Sunday I found some debris, with inscriptions, but I can not find any way from where they come from. I think of the plane, but maybe I was wrong. Maybe someone knows.

British aircraft...now to find which type.

Regards Mike

Thank You, Mike.
However, it can also be U.S. an army destroyer used by the Soviet Union. P39-Airacobra, P63-Kingcobra or P40-Warhawk.
If it is from the British, then it can be Spitfire or Hurricane.

I am sticking with British, one of the photos show DTD (Directorate of Technical Developement) was established by the Bristish Air Ministry, setting standards for Aircraft materials and construction. The inspectors had there own unique number ie DTD 133A. to show it had been checked or was correct spec.

Regards Mike

Yes, you might be right. Yes, I also found a DTD. The detail with the year of production of 16.03.35 are more in common with the British Hawker Hurricane, as its first flight was 06/11/1935. The U.S. Army aircraft, which I called, it was manufactured later.

Hi! I have a new stuff! Claudel Hobson carburettor and some unknown stuff, maybe it's from supercharger, I think so. Yes, and one strange pilot seat.

You seem to have mainly engine parts (Which explains why we cannot identify the airframe.).

I will see if I can find details on British radials.

[VERSUCH]

If you can get any numbers or letters from this photo , it may help identify the engine and therefore hint at the aircraft.

Cheers Mike

[JanisK]

Unfortunately, the numbers are in a very bad condition and I can not read them.

With a Claudel Hobson carbie, it could be a Wellington,Hampden,Stirling ,Halifax or alike.

These having the range to be anywhere near Latvia. (Powered by a Bristol radial engine.)

There maybe others that have better information.

Good Luck.

Mike
