That’s a pity if it doesn’t fly, looks great in the Shell colours. Only wish I had the money.

Excuse my ignorance, but where do you get a copy in the U.K?

Incidentally what happened to all those Spitfires in Burma, are they still looking?:very_drunk:

This has been on the WIX forum for a week or more now.Looks like wishful thinking.

I’ve inspected this collection of parts last year, and actually think it would have been cheaper to build a Master. All of the primary structure is wood, and if this is put into the hands of a specialist woodworking team (of which I can think of a couple in the Uk alone) this would be a realistic prospect to see it flying again.

Hopefully these substantial remains can be re-built into a complete airframe again one day.

This sounds quite exciting, has there been anything article wise written about this potential project. I must admit I knew nothing about this one. Great news.

That’s a good looking propellor John, very impressive. Incidentally I didn’t know that there was a Mercedes aero engine club. Good luck with your project and please keep us posted.

Poor old Edgar, my condolences to his family.
