Good Lord…

That would have been fun to trim…:eek:

A memorial thread…

Maybe a thread for Brian previewing his life and times,stories,jokes he shared,anything to remember why he loved these old planes we adore so much.

Wow..

Nice scheme.Very well done camo…Thanks for the pic.

Not another one…

Did,nt know you had a Spit project Richard?:D
Congrats on the find…:) 🙂
Any pics to share…Cmon we know you do…:diablo:
Our good news is the drawings for our formers have been sent off to the lazer cutters..I feel like bashing some tin soon…:rolleyes:

Good question…

We are in the same boat.Depending on it,s construction,etched,embossed,stamped..
Embossing I,ve heard strip the paint,repaint black then “carefully” take the black off the raised parts with fine wet and dry or with thinners on a cotton swab.Also would work with stamped..Ohhh and about half a bottle of scotch to relax the nerves while you do it…;)

Nice….

Great start..Thanks..:eek:

Oooohhhh,Aaaahhhh!!!

To me this pic is everything..Pure inspiration and a hope that we can achieve..one day…:D

BFP panel…

There are two types of BFP panels on British aircraft,the round topped ones and the rectangular ones.Pretty much universal and I think some Spits had the round topped ones.I reckon they look better anyway.Plus there were a few different contractors who constructed them so thats why you see differences in the panels construction.:D
