Thanks Brian, that is helpful. By chance I will be travelling up to Billericay this month to visit a long lost friend of my dad's from the 1940's&50's. He mentioned something about a small collection of aero engines etc. I think he said was his in the high street. I expect that is the very same one - I'll ask him about it.

My post has been edited to show the pilot's name: he was Erich Hulsmann.
