    that’s one hell of a Varsity, a friend of mine flew them in service in the 60’s, he wasn’t impressed with the power available, could be hard work 🙂

    Was,nt there a photo of B.45,s in RAF markings with mixed RAF/USAF personnel in frount, something to do with flying from this country?

    yep the RAF conducted flights over Russia on behalf of the USAF, the RAF markings I think was a clever move by the US, they could easily have flown with Stars and Bars

    you would think in this day and age they could have obtained the correct colours, sometimes Americans can be such heathens

    I like the B748, it looks quite elegant with the long fuselage and the shortened top deck

    amazing longevity, obviously the use of the process of heating plastic glue was ahead of it’s time!!!

    the Grandfather’s name was A O Bluth he must have had a fairly high profile in WW2 he had a strong connection with Churchill and was involved in fund raising, his main occupation was a Banker,
    Has anybody come across his name ?

    thanks very interesting, I’ve read a Flight article from 42 that mentions P40s but not Spitfires, so any props would be under Rotol’s name,I wonder if they actually ever made spitfire props
    thinking about it it seems likely that any presentation would have been from H-R

    thanks
    so people other than Horden Richmond made props using Hydulignum, what we are trying to do is to find out who would have made the blade and the cabinet
