    Couple of years ago (2019) I under took a private project to record the aero engines on public display at the Shuttleworth Collection.  I dont see any reason not to share these with you or online.  Maybe if being used to illustrate a book / online due credit should be given ?

    Feel free to contact me PM for any further images (larger size) as I live close to Old Warden and visit often

    Seems a lot has happened in the workshop with that New Jig?  You meantioned some parts coming from Norwich.  I assume you know of the the upper fuselage section that hangs form the ceiling of the Manston Spitfire Memorial hangar ?  Says it is from N6004,  seems the tail wheel assembly has gone back to RAF Museum.

    Another Stirling fuselage appear to be in a Museum in France, photos show a large section including crew access door and ladder.  Never been there but website show photos.  The place is south of Reims at Vraux

    Good to see your work progressing.  Interesting to hear about the Amal fixings (refer to another thread) how many of those fixing are required for the Typhoon ?  I expect it is a time consuming job to machine each set of parts ?  Not wishing to ‘arrange a marriage’ but would be interested to know how much information and parts you are sharing with other Typhoon / Tempest projects around the world and what a market there would be for a production run of such fixings.  Are alternative ‘mass produced’ items available for the airworthy rebuild projects ?

    I have no connection with any of the projects just an interest in seeing rare types rebuilt.

    p.s. although it appear as I am a newbi my history on this Forum goes way back, formally CADman and before that DOUGHNUT
