MB ejection seat UK displays & materials

[Airtrooper]

I would like to model several [Martin Baker] ejection seats. Ideally I'd like to measure and photograph originals (whether complete or incomplete, just so long as they're not installed in aircraft and therefore accessible). For aircraft many websites list the locations of surviving examples, but so far I've yet to find the same for ejection seats. Also, not many museum websites list the ejection seats they have on display. Does anyone know of such a list or lists for the UK please? In the meantime I started a small one below. Please add what you know.

 

Can anyone recommend any references (e.g. books, magazine articles etc.) which contain 3-view diagrams for MB seats?

 

Does anyone hold any general arrangement drawings/blueprints for MB seats?

 

Many thanks

 

Andy

Two of the Newark seats are a 3 from a Vulcan and a 4 from a Lightning. There are also a few at Aeroventure Doncaster including a 6 from a Buccaneer.
