Industrial magazine advert for Gustav Schlick printed in 1918 and showing graphic of steam boiler jets. The company, formed in 1902, had a wide expertise in all aspects of industrial spray technology and were able to steer the direction of fuel injector development along fruitful lines after they became consulting contractors to Dr Walter Thiel's combustion research group in 1937.
Sample set of 3303D type fuel injector inserts that were found in Peenemünde in part of a group that were bunched together in a space about 300mm in diameter with the remains of packaging. They appear to be manufacturing samples and and some have been graded with numbers 1,2,3, as well as with red and white paint to show the burner cup echelon position (C or D). Five different manufacturers are represented in this group. V2RH collection image

A schematic drawing of the Askania rudder servo 'Rudermaschine LRM 3'showing the critical compact dimentions of the device making it ideal for retro fit projects for smaller aircraft.
Trade literature advert for the Preschona company (Adolf Meyer) in Berlin, Germany. The company was a supply contractor and (among other items) manufactured the non-return valve for the steam turbine exhaust heat exchanger, employed to volatilise a small portion of liquid oxygen (LOX) to pressurise the LOX tank to maintain critical flow volume to the LOX turbo-pump.
