Fascinating though isn’t it!

Graham – good luck with the project. Keep in touch here – there are a lot of people who really know their onions with aircraft restoration here, including some real Hurricane restoration experts!

Those pics remind me I’ve got loads of tubular rivets and stainless fork ends out in t’garage.

Must sort them out and get them on ebay.

I would be interested if you want to sell them, might save some fees

Not to mention my HP Hampden panel:D

Hello Graham

James de Ruyter , you could contact him directly.
Regards,
Herbert

Crikey Herbert – is James still around then – has he still got his T-6G project? Has some dealings with him a few years back then his comms dried up!

Think Benno was trying to contact him too.
