Nice job Simon. And good to meet you at Popham.

Don’t forget, if you get any more Gnat parts…. http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t224/WN957/Emoticons/speak_cool.gif

The new XP853 Westland Scout Website

For a more in depth view of the project so far see……

www.westlandscout.com

This is a works in progress website so I add bits when I either purchase something,find out some new information, or do a bit of actual work!
The engine was fitted last month and hopefully over this summer I will get to grips with the cockpit. This year it is also hoped to get the Nimbus engine fired up for ground running.

I will be coming to Cockpit Fest at Newark this year, (minus the Scout) so it will be good to meet up with fellow enthusiasts.

Interesting project. Thanks for sharing. I always thought the little Scout was a neat Helicopter.
