    I have recently come into posession of an RAF Weapons Loader Type Y, and was wondering where would I go to source collectors for this.

    It was used by the RAF frontline bases for loading ordnance onto aircraft. And its a large piece of kit.

    Hi OP, that sounds interesting. Does it look something like this ?

    Just a guess but I reckon your best bet is to get in touch with someone who's into old vehicles.
    They might be able to use it alternatively as a 'lift' of some kind for maintainance ?

    There is also

    but they may not be as busy a forum as Wehrmacht-awards.

    I'd recommend getting 2nd opinions if you are thinking of selling it. Provenance of the item, the details on where it came from usually help the price.
