Great information

I found this thread through Jim Munro who I came across through my own interest in the Whirlwind. I didn’t know he was producing a film on this wonderful aircraft (he kept quiet about that) though very glad to hear it as I too felt that it was important to remember it, save for posperity the thoughts of those few pilots who remain and equally importantly record the aircraft’s merits as the work of one of the great aircraft designers of the era and how it influenced his later and greater designs. I can now allow Jim to create the documentary it deserves.

My own interest apart from the love of a beautiful and technically advanced aircraft that could have achieved so much more had it been developed, is to produce profiles and paintings of the aircraft and relating those to specific pilots where possible. If anyone has good images or additional information especially relating to decals and details that could be useful to this end then I would love to hear from you.
