The wood is the common part! The CAD CNC sorts out the rest.

Needless to say that these re-manufactured fuselage/wings are superb, and should ensure that Mosquitos will continue to fly in the future.

WOW, that is so so clever.!

I take it then David that given the necessary budget that this kind of technique could be applied to re-manufacturing the wooden sections of a Sea Hornet too?! Or is there something else that makes it a different proposition altogether?

Rob

Cheers Dave. You know what, that book does sound familiar, and i’ve a funny feeling that i already have it…….. somewhere :o. Either that or i’ve read an account of its accident online somewhere!

Rob

Really nice photos Ken. Tony would probably love to see those in due course.

Rob

I don’t want to get accused of any specualtion, but yes i think this would be one of the ex Duxford based Tony de Bruyn examples in German markings!
