A Couple of Questions about the Hornet Restoration

Is the mould at The DeHavilland Musum of Any Use? And is it still in the planning stages?

Apologies for the email address faux pas, Admin. I didn’t think about that!

I’ve just noticed during a scan through various Facebook Pages that there will be an update on the Sea Hornet project in the next Classic Wings

when Classic Wings announced the new Hornet initiative, we requested leads to additional parts and materials, and happily more Hornet and Sea Hornet items have come to light as a result, from several sources around the world, and are now with Pioneer Aero at Ardmore Airport, Auckland. We’ll go into more detail on this in the next edition of Classic Wings

I dont like to bother those people. They’re very likely inundated with queries and there are some on here who are very often ‘in the know’ about such things.

Dave H mentions it towards the end of this WONZ Show Live podcast.

They are working on the P-39 currently, and from Dave’s photos there are are still a couple of P-40 fuselages in the work area.
So still in planning and additional parts acquisition stage.
