WOW!
The big sticking out of the leading edge of the wing is about 4 to 5 cm. I think I posted a piccie of the whole unit on the site ages ago….if you want a pic let me know.
Finally, one of my fav stix, from a Shack.
A tale of two Spitfire sticks
Here is the Spit panel, almost finished…next time you see it, it should be in the cockpit with all its placards in place.
here is one of S for Sugars
I dont think they were….not sure why they would’ve been. S for Sugar has her full compliment. Made by the Martin Co (of Martine-Baker fame), I have one somewhere…cool item!
I was just thinking that if I had somewhere to put it I would want one!!
whoops! Sorry Jaldo! My knowledge is not good in language areas
i was using 9.61Mb and only allowed 4ish….just deleted a pile….pity. As soon as I can get someone to do my website i will post pix in a snapshot album
indeed, he made one for Medway
Speaking of .303s. Anyone out there seen or have a link to a good pic of a Catalina PBY’s side blister .303 guns? I am working on an illustration of an RAF Cat involved with a UBoat and think they may want to be shooting their pop guns at it. I have found plenty of pics of the US version, but understand the RAF used twin .303s in the side Blisters.
I have seen it listed as twin Vickers and twin Brownings…Hmmm…the internet can drive one to drink!
Please point me to a link or pop a picture, and don’t eat the bullets…..slow death by lead poisoning! 😉

I must have a piccy of my Grandad’s cat somewhere with this (he sank U601)
Indeed, I will be putting out a CD sometime in the hopefully not too distant future to include the many phots of many Hurris in various states of dress and undress….
I’ve lost contact with Geoff who is building a Lancaster front section – he moved to Canada from the UK in June 2006 by the looks of things.
Can anyone give me his new phone number or address please?
Thanks
Elliott
If you get it old chap, please pop me in touch with the old fella…Geoff Langdon-Brown of Streatham fame? As it would be nice to chat again 🙂
