Blenheim Progress

With regard to the engines, a deal of work has taken place in that two reconditioned crankcases complete with con rods, cranks, blowers etc are ready for fit but the main stripping of the original engines has not taken place yet. We are hoping a great deal of the original engines can be rescued most certainly all of the ancilleries and most of the cylinders this will save a deal of time.
Engine wise we need to employ a full time engineer on these as we not only have the Blenheim to consider but also two Lysander engines, but again finance rears its ugly head. John Romain needs to oversee the builds, so it needs to be done in the top hanger and we do have a engineer lined up. All we have to do!! is find some cash, to clear some of the work load and to find some space to do it in, simple isn`t it.
As for my expertise with a spirit level I`m pretty useless at shelves, much better with a hammer in my hand.
