Re: B. Taylor 83" Spitfire project. SOLD

Sold to a guy in a remote part of Scotland, he has a full size bush plane and his own grass strip to fly from. Good news is I can go for a holiday and see the Spitfire progress.

Re: B. Taylor 83" Spitfire project.

Someone has asked for more pictures , i will keep adding them as I can. It has a lovely sound from the engine probably because the exhaust is divided up into , originally 6 outlets, should be even better now as it has 8 outlets. So you don't get that normal barking two stroke sound. You can see from...

This was my previous spitfire, so it's the same engine gone into the new one, but with another exhaust , I increased the exits from 6 to 8.
No smoke system this time, it was a bit messy,

Re: B. Taylor 83" Spitfire project.

I have a detail kit for the cockpit and a very nice panel. Bought from Propag if I've remembered the name right.
I got all the laser cut parts and fiberglass parts from America.
It has a carbon fiber propeller and carbon fibre spinner.

Re: Flair Tiger Moth

Two people are showing interest, first to come will be the lucky new owner. It's like owning a small version of a full size moth because of the detail, you won't find many with a metal cowl. I often wonder what happened to Gordon Warburton 1/4 scale Tiger, That had a metal cowl too it was a work of ...
