What good workmanship with really interesting construction photographs. The under cockpit area fuselage panel looks very complex. Is it a new build or recovered?
That is a real panel recovered from a soon to fly project

Tony,
That’s some fantastic progress you have accomplished. That surely would
promise some nice things once you start on the Mustang. Any pics of the 1/4 Whirlwind?

Thanx Ross and Stu
It has been a hard slog with more to come! Hope to complete the canopy rail/canopy fitment and firewall work by end of the year. Markings in May and continued fitting out.
My seat requires a back in it if anyone knows of one!!!

Yes, actually quite well done (just thought I’d use some classic reserved English understatement, to offset the exuberance from the colonies)
