I need wings

I have been asked by my boss if I can get hold off (beg, steal or borrow) a set of wings. These are required for a floral display on a cliff top in the Dorset area. The wings need to cover an area of 20m. so it could be one wing or a pair. They will need to be metal (or similar) and the public will have access to them, condition is not important (although a total rebuild will have to be ruled out) and colour is not important, but we may have to paint them. If anyone has a set sitting in the garage or know of a set rotting somewhere, then please get in touch. Pick up can be arranged , although Europe, I have been told, is not an option 😀

Wings

I believe the Sea Prince wing would be unsuitable because of the engine mount, but thank you for the offer. Am very interested in the T6 wing from Dunbar or the Vampire wings from pagan01 and have sent private messages to both (i hope). Thanks for your help guy’s (and I knew someone was going to mention Red Bull 🙂 )

It’s been cut at the wing root and has areas exposed to show wing construction

There’s a surplus sea prince wing at bruntingthorpe, i’ll check if it’s still there it’s surplus at the moment and in quite good nick it’s on the verge of being weighed in though so might have already gone, is this the sort of size your after

Can you let me know if it is still there and going spare – may yield some useful parts for Prince G-AMLZ.

Cheers,
Jon

I know where there were sets of Vampire wings (12ish metre overall span), can make enquiries if you are serious.
