Grumman TBF Avenger (any variant will do) Radio Operator's Panel Photos?

**Armchair Ace** · 12-23-2010 05:23 AM

'evening, all!

It's me, again, and I've been developing the cockpit of a TBF-Avenger for FlightGear flight simulator, and now I've moved to the radio operator's station - but I have one problem. No matter how hard I look, I can't find a single photo of the RO's panel anywhere.

Do any of you guys have some photos I could use?

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Got some interior pics in a couple of books Tom (TBF-1 and TBM-3 variants). Give us a couple of days and I'll post them up for you.

Fantastic! Thanks for the all the photos so far - norab, the photo you tried to show us isn't loading; could you provide a direct link to the photo instead?

Ok, here's the pics mate, sorry about the wait!

The first 3 are applicable for TBF-1, -1c, and TBM-1 aircraft, from 'Squadron/Signal no.1082: TBM/ TBF Avenger in Action'; the last 2 are of the TBM-3 radioman's station, courtesy 'Aero Publishers, Inc: Supplement to Grumman TBF/ TBM "Avenger" '.

Hope these help!
