Unidentified TR Blade
Can anyone identify what helicopter this comes from.
A fellow in another group wants to know.
He purchased it at a garage sale in Canada.
Thanks for any clues.
Cheers
Albatross.

Is it possible it is a propellor blade ?. This was their main line of business per wikepedia, They invented hydrolignum process. Sorry just read the post above .
It looks very much like a Saro Skeeter tail rotor blade.
Putnam's Saunders and Saro Aircraft Since 1917 has a picture on p248 of Skeeter 8, G-APOI taken in 1958 and the profile and paint look identical to your images.

The SR prefix to the part number suggests Saunders Roe
I think its probably an early scout blade
