Is it part of an aero engine?

Could it be that this was a machine gun sitting on the fuselage of a double decker plane from WWI. And the mechanism we see behind it-was connected to the propeller.

(most like not the correct answer)

You'd better read the previous page, Markus - we just covered that (interrupter gear)

Coffman starter (this began to dawn on me when you said what you did about the artwork, so when you said "strictly piston" that had to be it)

^ may well be it, reminded me (again) of the starting of the "Flight of the Phoenix" 'rebuilt' one engined plane

TAADAA! used in Spitfires you've often displayed the forum. EICH takes it!

What intrigued me initially was a photo of the 'shotguns shells' used in one. Over 2 U.

Eichhörnchen · 02-27-23, 06:26 PM

Seen it used often but never seen the starter itself - I was thrown at first by the multiple chambers, expecting there to be just one

Okay, what is this and where?

Jimbuna · 02-28-23, 06:01 AM

A building?

Eichhörnchen · 02-28-23, 07:24 AM

Yes - inside a building
