Hi ,

Does anyone have info , photos/manuals etc , of 1950s-1980s vintage airdropped 'Lindholme' gear canisters?

Hi Bob,
From memory the early ones were large cardboard tubes with a plywood base one end and a parachute at the other. The later ones were fibreglass. Will have a look through my paperwork for more info.
