I'd be VERY interested in those drawings. I posted the same question on the gun pack on a couple of other forums (or is it fora? Always get that one wrong) some time ago but you're breaking new ground by actually working from the drawings. Looking forward to your book, too. Cheers, Mark |

Re: Blenheim mk.1(F): winggun and gunpack
Hi
Well I have finally got hold of a copy of a blenheim manual, ( but it is for a MK V ), but it does shows how the bomb doors work, so I am clear in my mind about the access, for the groundcrew to load the weapons. I could do with more info on how the ammunition to the guns were fed, to clear it all up, were the inner bomb doors removed or modified ? cheers Jerry |

Hi Andy,
Sorry to hear about the eye op. Hope you make a rapid recovery (and, no, I'm not being parochial...well, maybe just a little bit!). ;-) Cheers, Mark |

Re: Blenheim mk.1(F): winggun and gunpack
Many thanks for the details so far - can we assume that the RAF machines also had 400-450 rounds for the wing gun?
Odd arangement, the way the gunpack being powered by the engine - are more details available? Best regards, Edwin |
