  • Drg dh 5220

    Hi all

    I have a propeller left by my grandfather and from what I can make out of the markings here are some of them:

    DRG DH 5220 P26
    ?.I.S ??28
    GIPSY 1
    87681 (might be 87631)

    Can anyone help?

    DH 5220 is the de Havilland drawing number for a range of Moth aircraft equipped with the Gypsy Major 1 engine. There are seventy variants. The type of aircraft was indicated by a letter; DH5220/P indicates a DH82 Tiger Moth and the Auster, both widely used training and communication light aircraft used by the RAF during WW2.

    With kind regards,

          Perhaps around 200 Euros.

                DRG.D.H. 5220/P/26 - "Drawing number" refers to a blueprint
                I.S. 1328 - Production (serial number)?
                Gipsy Major L.H. Engine, left hand rotation
                JP6 P4 - Diameter (length) and Pitch (blade angle)
