I have this part for a Sterling, curved alloy strip about 20cm long although could have been longer, stamped with S.B 236 and a data tag with 1290615 and B419E. It is also stamped UHB 11 in a small oval. Traces of cockpit green on the inner surface. Any ideas please?

C'mon guys, let's tighten-up the part identification...

Apologies, I'm slacking :highly_amused:

Scott,any history on the location where it was found? Would certainly be interested in borrowing it as it will be useful when it comes to making those parts up when it comes to that part of our cockpit

cheers

Hi John, No history i'm afraid, as it's out of my dads collection, identities lost to time. Give me a nod when you require the part for copying and many thanks for the information that you have supplied.

Thanks Scott, thanks for the offer and will let you know when we'd like to borrow it

That's a toughie! No Pt Nos and a vague pic LOL. The beam looks like it could be part of the cockpit structure and the cutout could be for the heater duct that runs down the stbd side of the fuselage, but that would just be a guess.
