Thanks Daniel for the ‘heads up’ on this project.
I was totally unaware of its existence. I visited Col’s hangar a number of times many years ago.
Cheers,
Owen

Indeed it is ….Ross is his son. I have met Ross in 2009 for a flightgear shoot with the CAC Mustang and P-40 Kittyhawk.

Hi Sopwith
Might be Spit IX MH603. Would be correct for 1942 (I think)

SAE prop shaft, I assume that isn’t the flight engine?
