| Steve McDonald McAlpin, FL | Hello,
I am stuck on something in the restoration of my F17D Staggerwing Beech. I have the Jacobs R-915, L6, 330hp engine, same as the Canadian Avro Anson. I need a set of engine baffles for my project. The original set I have are trash. Did you make new baffles? Do you have a source for making new baffles? Do you have the dies for stamping out new baffles? Any leads appreciated.

| Bob Fulton Queensland, Australia, YT | There is a dismantled Anson in remarkably good condition at our local airport. Email me for photographs.
(State/Province above is of course, not correct. It seems the only options are US and Canadian States/Provinces.) 08/16/2002 @ 19:40 [ref: 5493] |

| Kim Polomka Colorado Springs, CO | My father was a test pilot for the Anson Avro Mark 2 in WW2. He was stationed at Prince Edward Island Summertown I believe.
I would like to seek out any other pilots that were around that time. There is an Anson at the South Australian aircraft museum in which there is a photo of my father in the cockpit at the controls, circa 1942. Thanks Kim 02/26/2002 @ 14:32 [ref: 4407] |
