RAF Type F 4,000lb Bomb Slip (release Unit)

I am currently writing a book and am in need of a clear photo of a WW2 RAF Type F release unit / bomb slip, as used in Lancasters and other heavy bombers. This can either be a recent photo of a restored / surviving item, or a scan from an official manual. Can anyone help?

Full credit will be given.

Many thanks!
 
Hi Airman617

Have you tried the RAF Museum library - AP1664A Vol 2?

Ahh, not yet, but its not far from me. Thanks for the AP number, that will save time. Until then, can anyone else help?
