Hi folks
Not been on here for a while – but thought I’d drop by to update anyone who’s interested and doesn’t know of where we have got to with our Whirlwind build.
They said it couldn’t be done, but thanks to Engineer Pete Smith we are now able to say that the forward fuselage is under construction.



The rear fuselage components are more or less complete, including skins rolled on an original 1941 Westland press by Airframe Assemblies:
