Stirling Article

Post by jamesinnewcastle »

Hi All

Attached for your interest is an article from Aeronautics March 1942, it relates to Stirling production and while it doesn't say much new there are some little tid-bits, such as the fuel tanks being purple and the front gunner being able to lift up his seat and drop down out of the turret instead of using the doors......

oops loaded back to front again ...


James
