Drool….

Not sure, but I “think” it’s a FEW Mustang. It’s Australian-built, anyway (can’t recall the owner’s name, but it’ll come to me eventually!)

I really like that Mustang alot. The “Bald Eagle” scheme is one of my favorites. From the photo I can’t really tell whether it’s a Stewart S-51, or a F.E.W. Mustang. Those are the only two scale replicas that come anywhere close to capturing the proper look of the original.

If you’re interested I can forward the article about it from the Canadian “Recreational Flyer” magazine.

Wow, excellent. It’d great to see so much talent not going to waste.

Nope, fully-functional, and carved by the builder, Ross Ferguson, himself.

A total own-design job from start to finish, including the propeller hub, right down to the wheel hubs!

It is very nice, definitely.
Is the 4-bladed prop there for show or actually functional ?

I think that first pic is an earlier one, as this one clearly shows it fitted with cannon, yet supposedly this pic was taken before it first flew! :confused:

…and perhaps painted it PRU Blue?

I agree.
It does look like it was based on the Mark 19,..perhaps the RR one 😉

If you put a 5-bladed prop on that Spitfire and took the photo from a little bit further away then you would be hard pressed to tell it from a real one.TNZ

I have to say the replicas are getting better and better at present.

Also that P-51 is damn good too 🙂

Not forgetting the P-51 fans….

One found on Airliners.net

Just maybe…. 😉 😀

Not bad Daz. It is one of the nicest resized spits I’ve seen. I do believe you would love to have one, don’t you! 😉

2/3rds scale, with a GM V8 engine fitted. Top speed is around 220mph….. 😀

is that 1/3 scale whats the engine?

What scale is that, Daz ?
