DESCRIPTION
The T Mk.5 and T Mk.55 Lightning aircraft both used indicators scaled to 3,000lb per wing, such as this indicator. I have limited information as to the stores ref numbers of these indicators, apart form the details below.
Versions
The T Mk.55 IPC states: pre-mod 9014 used type GE.12 (6A/6966) indicator for port, and GE.13 (6A/6968) for starboard. Post-mod 9014 used a type GE.38 (6A/11706) for port, and GE.39 (6A/11707) for starboard. I've not yet found out what mod 9014 was.
For the stbd side I have acquired a pre-mod 9014 GE13 indicator.
