These 2 ?

You should see What they started of with ( Langley Hampden that is )

When they pulled it out of the ocean………..They have pictures of it

It was mangled, twisted & in terrble shape.

I think the only straight part was a portion of the rear fuse.

True the interior is gutted. I was told they where saving the furbishing of the interior when they will be in a position to store it inside.

As for the engines………well they could not procure them at an “affordable” price for the museum. Hence the replicas.

I guess if someone would give them 2 peggy’s they would gladly fit them to the bird.

My 2 cents only

Juging by the height of the landing gear………the prop must have been huge….

Must have been a handfull on takeoff :))

I remember asking in 2001….

How badly was it damaged ?

I remember that Mr. Cartillier of SOT was loking for engine parts for the Lizzy in Canada a couple of weeks prior to the accident.

Oh hell…..that is so ever nice.

How functionnal was it back then ?

That is why maybee only one engine is running

OTTAWA, a definitive must……

Ottawa is a small cozy place also, getting there is not a problem

Does anyone has recent pics of the airframe ?

Tks

RS700…

RS700…

I saw her 3 years ago.

I cannot say as to the condition of the wood. All of her will have to be x-rayed & ultrasounded for wood contamination, delamination or root.

VR796 had all of that done already. The only bad part was a small wing skin section which was replaced.

But you are right, RS700 is a potential flyer.

As to whom will be first……It all depends on time & ressources.
