Westland Whirlwind HAR.10 XJ729
Dear all.
I'm in the process of writing an article about Westland Whirlwind HAR10 XJ729 and was wondering if any of you fine people ever flew this aircraft while it was in RAF service. The aircraft has recently been granted CAA permit to fly and made a static appearance at last years Yeovilton air day. I am soon to meet the current owner to interview about this project and to take some ground, and hopefully, some aerial photos. If any of you have any tails to tell that I might be able to use I would be most grateful. Thank you in advance. Kind regards Lewis |
This aircraft was formerly owned by Brian Austen and kept at his site near Cricklade. I was responsible for the civvy radio radio fit when it got its first CAA permit to fly.

Hello Zetec,
No your message didn't disappear, it's just that I posted here in rotorheads a while back and only had the one reply so I thought I would try in Military Aircrew to see if it was more suitable. Thank you for the photo, great. Would I be able to use this? Is it your photo? Thank you kindly for the second reply. |
