5C/340 – Flare Release Button

£100.00 Ex VAT

2 of these are usually fitted to aircraft of the pre-war period, when landing at night, and simultaneously light and release a block of burning magnesium on a short arm, fitted under the both lower wings. It is a wonder they did not set fire to the wing fabric more often! Quite unobtainable now – as our originals are all sold , but we have manufactured in our CAA approved works, a handful of visually exact and working examples of these using original parts where possible. These are NOT ‘knock-offs’ familiar to all buyers of second-rate replica Spitfire parts, but a really high quality practical item.
