I am looking for information for a possible Fairey Flycatcher replica. The drawings that were used for the Fleet Air Arm replica have vanished.
I have copies of the magazine articles from years back as well as the AP 1340 manual. Any help or clues would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Ed Storo

You say the replica’s drawings are lost. Where have you looked?
The flying replica in the FAA museum as build for John Fairey in about 1977 by Westward Airways (Lands End), and withdrawn from use in about 1996. John died in 2009 when the Percival Provost he was flying crashed in Lincolnshire.
