Canadian De Haviliand Mosquito Magneto Switches & Altimeter
Up
for bids are some very rare cockpit parts that were used on the Canadian De Havilland Mosquito. The altimeter is made
by Kollsman and is a MK-XIVA. It has the Air Ministry mark (A.M.) and Crown and does
show extremely well. This type 35,000 altimeter was also used on other high performance
WWII aircraft such as the Spitfire and the Hurricane. The
magneto switches are the long arm variety. These type switches were also used
on other WWII British war planes including the Lancaster and Halifax Bombers. They
are used but do show very well. Serviceability
of these items is unknown, so these parts are being sold as display items only. ****************************** Total

Honda back in F1 as engine supplier to McLaren from 2015
Thu, 16 May 2013We reported that Honda were looking likely to be heading back in to F1 as engine supplier to McLaren nearly two years ago, and this morning Honda has confirmed they have formed a joint project with McLaren to supply engines and energy recovery systems to McLaren from 2015 in a joint project with the McLaren team becoming McLaren Honda. The new F1 partnership revives a very successful period for McLaren when it last used Honda engines and Prost and Senna dominated F1 with Honda powered McLarens, and fits in nicely with Honda’s return to making supercars with the new Honda NSX. Formula One engines will drop to a 1.6 litre V6 in 2015 – with a turbo – and it will be very easy for parallels to be drawn with the V6 hybrid plant Honda are using on the new NSX, which is going to do its credibility no harm whatsoever.
