A.A.P.P. Cartridge Start = Help
https://drive.google.com/folderview?...UU&usp=sharing]Can anyone help with what this cartridge was used on? It was unearthed at Brooklands Museum, former Vickers / BAC factory.
I am assuming that it was for an Auxiliary Airborne Power Plant and the CEES means Cartridge Electric Engine Start. It is about 40mm diameter and the date code is 6 64.

As Beagle says, a photo would help, however I'm not positive but starter cartridges used on Canberras might have been that diameter.
Having now seen the photo, it looks more like a 30mm cannon cartridge.
