Getting closer and closer. Finished the landing gear and made up the whip antenna from monofilament fishing line. With a little luck I'll finish up the last few details and have it finished tomorrow.

Thanks Evan Bill

Interesting bit of history just came my way. Just now I was looking at the pics I posted last night and our secretary came in and saw them and mentioned that her dad was a mechanic somewhere outside London and he talked about working for 48 hours straight painting D-Day stripes on aircraft before the Invasion.

I've seen pictures of them using rollers, so much for our tidy edges!!!!!

It's really looking the biz Glenn. As for applying the AEAF stripes, those done in the field were often a bit rough around the edges - those done post D-day, at the MUs, tended to be neater.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Superb looking machine.

 

[T Bolt]

I put some restrained paint chipping on and put on the prop and it's Finished!

Will take the official pictures and make the final post Sunday as I have to work tomorrow.

Get them final threads up Glenn, with this lot you're in with a chance of a clean sweep.

Excellent build Glenn. I like the scheme a lot and you've represented it well.
