I need the NATO stock number NSN of a Palouste starter. Long shot after so many years but if someone could PM me with this, i would be very gratefull.
A likely example with be a number painted on or on a manafacturers plate something like this: NSN 1234-99-5678

TM....I assume you are looking for the version used to start a Gnat ?
If so, I would suggest your best bet is to contact R.R / Lucas Aerospace..or even Turbomeca directly...just a thought.

It is for a Gnat; and the suggestions are most welcome. Bizarreley, there is a NSN cataloque online but doubt exists as to whether numbers are for an air starter or another Palouste engine use, for there seems to be a few.
