bits in barn

Hi all, looks like an undercarrage leg in centre just behind orange box.

I also I found a number on the engine mounting frame, looks like 80087 12, does this help?

Hi all, the number is more likely to be 30007 -12, as 300 part of number would represent spitfire . Just looking through some books to see if 07 is engine frame.

Anson from the undercarriage. 2 blade props as well.

I’m with you circus, Anson was my first thought !

Thanks Moggy! I understand that Hawker Restorations have been very helpful in the past (since before my time with the project, in fact). Thing is though, they haven’t done one of these, either 🙂 – As far as I know (and don’t quote me on this) this is the first excercise in gathering such items for the purposes of information that has taken place, and that includes the most excellent work of Hawker Restorations.

Hi beermat, Hawker Restorations would be the best bet for info. We did a couple of sets of wings for them at airframe assemblies back in the mid ’90’s, noteably P3351 that was for Sir Tim Wallis & i think a set for AE977. Good luck with what you want to do, cant say i’ve seen much info on these wings !

hurri wings

Hi beermat, just thought i’d ask ,are you building static wings or will they be a flyer?

steve

Thanks Mk12!! Anyone got recent piccies of the two airframes?Two for the price of one.Sounds like a good way of doing things.

Hi Qldspitty, there are no pictures currently avalible because airframes are in secure storage. Further to MK12’s post, the port wing is also complete.

Some what ironic considering the owners of this Hurricane were embroiled in an Indian saga of their own a few years ago.

Do you mean the disappearing ME109 ??!!
