Westland Whirlwind again

Hi all,

Some time ago on this forum it was mentioned that there was a project underway in the UK to build a full size Whirlwind fighter, any news on that, or was it the Whirwind cockpitsection made of wood that was recentely discussed?

Well, if you don’t ask……………

Cheers

Cees
