FLYING CONTROLS
LEADING PARTICULARS
DESCRIPTION
SIMULATION
A combination of original and close replica items are being used to give the best possible experience.
A friend loaned me a pair of control columns from T55 cockpit. I took moulds from these originals in silicone rubber, to enable me to produce resin cast replicas.
Another friend made available a Lightning rudder bar and pedals, this unit is from a single seat aircraft. As they are in grey paint, it is most likely from an F Mk.3, F Mk.6 or F Mk.53. The two seat aircraft used a very different rudder pedal assembly, but I am very happy with this set, and there is next to no chance of finding the two-seat type.
