FW: [Whitley_project] Re: Early Bomb Jettison Unit

Hi Michael

AIRSAM is a company based in Essex that sells MoD surplus aircraft
spares. They have a lot of interesting parts, but their prices are
pitched at those rebuilding aircraft to fly so can be a bit expensive
sometimes.

This is their website: http://www.airsam.clara.net/
