Palouste Mk.101/102-Jet Air Starter Trolleys and Airborne Pod. The Palouste starter was used for starting up aircraft jet engines by means of high pressure and high velocity air generated by a small turbine located inside the trolley pod. The turbine was housed inside a unique-shaped pod resembling a drop fuel tank. No wonder the Palouste could also be airborne, carried on underwing pylons, thus enabling to service RAF, FAA or even US Navy warplanes at auxiliary, ill-equipped airfields. A set of detachable wheels was used to facilitate moving the starter across the field. The set also contains a photo-etched fret and a sheet of decals. A large access panel in the rear section of the pod can be posed open.
