Prop Strike. what an excellent post. Thank you. I noticed the forum has a little more bounce lately and I do know its principles for some not to come back. Just a shame there are not view counts as I think that would help boost interest even more form us posters.
I really hope P3966 takes to the sky in 2024, cant wait to see and hear the Tempest.
C54 guys are outside, Im guessing this need to be undercover.
Not seen anyone working on the C54 for ages
Cotton Eyed Joe. wow, 2 POB, both safe. it could have ended a whole lot worse.
Excellent update as always. looking great.
Enjoy your holiday.
I would guess you fit set the arrow N then the lamp can be directional as an aid at night to which runway is dead.

Oracal , 2k in 1973 is the equivelent buying power of 30k today UK.

through a mate who knows a mate that flys them here.
Thank you for the confirmation DH82EH
Great work, look forward to seeing more on this.
Hangarage at 2000 pounds ? sounds very cheap, more like 400 to 600 PCM Id have thought today.
100 hours isnt it on Tiger engines now? and anew engine is not cheap.
