Your assistance please!
From time-to-time I receive images from well-meaning supporters of this thread but where no details are supplied. The image below being an example.
Anyone who may be in a position to provide some details as to which model of the Whirlwind this may be and to which Squadron she was assigned (she seems to be wearing the identifier 831 or 891) - your input would be welcome. An approximate date and the type of ship she is sailing aboard would be terrific!
Just a reminder to those readers who are not signed-up to PPRuNe but who would like to contribute photos to this thread, the email address is:

These do not appear to be the 'standard' Whirlwind floats (or at least not the normal fixed floats) and must presumably be of the emergency 'pop-out' variety.
Also .. can anyone identify the device roughly halfway along the top of the tail rotor driveshaft?
