Re: Auster AOP 3 Radio installation
As an update here are some pictures of my Auster AOP Mk3 at a local airfield.The markings are that of NX536 of 659 AOP Squadron shortly after D-Day. I have recently made contact with a veteran Army Auster pilot who actually flew Mk3s and he confirms the Wireless set No19 was on a shelf behind the passenger seat unlike later Austers which had the radio on the passenger seat. Its a shame there is so little information available on these little aircraft and their crews having performed such a dangerous and vital job.
