Shawn,
Now you have set a real problem. The operational Wessex 1 had only one JPT gauge but I have a dark and very blurred photograph of an ASW Wessex 1 cockpit taken about 1966 whilst in the hover .... the JPT reads 540 deg. and immediately above it is another temperature gauge which reads 3 on an arc which is marked EXH in deg C from 0 to 8 (00)? It appears to have a red line just above 4 and on tape below it reads something like "rear plate". Do I vaguely remember a limit of 410 or 420, or even 416 ?
Apologies, but I don't know how to upload the picture. I just cannot think what it could be .... is there an old pinger out there who maybe has the answer?!!
