Today I received text from my friend who has been helping me in this project.
J’ai un morceau du Mosquito
It appears that these two pieces of metal are from the wreckage of the Mosquito and were retrieved by a relative of a local Mayor.
The small bakerlite plate on the top was subsequently riveted on, so that the plate could be used as a saucepan lid!
A really great find and our first piece for the exhibition that we would love to do.
I will send off details to the RAF museum to confirm identity of the part.
