Hi Bob, regarding the WW Jet Provost. I have purchased the rights etc from Chris to bring the Provost home. As you are aware I initially designed and built the prototype so I decided to take it a step further. Using the prototype airframe I have in motion a fibreglass fuselage being produced. New pl...

Is this still available, cheers Dave

Getting closer to completion, engine and wing mounts now done, wing tips, flaps and ailerons to do to finish the wings.

I used skinning resin from easy composites. I would use heavier cloth on the underside of the fuzz to protect from hanger rash or a wheels up landing.

I have a 35 rear exhaust rcgf which has only been test run. Change of plans has made it no longer needed.

Moving along nicely, wings nearly complete and the engine is ready for fitting after its test run last week. Cowl due this week thanks to Paul.

I have started glassing the wings but I have a lot to do to catch up with Ray who has nearly completed his

Along with the P-51 mould I got the Spitfire mould which my airframe was pulled from. To be honest it’s pants, it has major weathering damage to the outside where the flanges and other areas have rotted away. The gel coat is crazed due to incorrect laying up along with damage caused when ejecting my...

All retracts done, fitted and tested, working really well. Wing mounts to fit next then top sheeting.

Following my request for a new Canopy for my P-51 I was given an offer to purchase the Fuselage, canopy and spinner moulds. The fuselage mould is in very good condition inside after a clean up but needs tidying outside as it has a few rough edges, the canopy mould is broken but repairable and the sp...

A little more work done just doing all the fiddly bits to get it ready for glassing. The test retract has been fitted and apart from a 1/32 spacer fitted a treat. A test fit of the wing showed no problems, just the cowl now.

It’s a long one Cary

I have made some more progress with the Buchon, the wing is ready for top sheeting and is waiting for the completion of the retracts to test fir before sheeting. The fuselage is now completed ready for glassing and all tail feathers done.

The fuselage is nearing completion of the repair and is looking in better shape ready to receive the new formers etc.

Hi I am in need of a new canopy for my 1/3 scale P-51. There are a few of these airframes about so I would presume there is a plug for pulling new replacements. I have a man who can pull the canopy if that is a problem. Cheers Dave

Fuselage glassed and second coated with resin, 100g on the bottom to protect from damage in transit etc and 50g for the rest

The wing is nearly ready and is hanging up ready for the fuz to be sorted, the center part wil be built to suit the cut out in the fuz.

Before the wing mount and now, the original was a 2 piece wing but now it is a 3 piece with a center section that will mount as in my 1/3 Spit

Due to a delivery failure at work I spent the day on my 1/3 scale projects. I had bonded the engine mount into the fuselage with a special polyester filler adhesive then glassed the joints for extra grip coverage.

Started to get the fuselage ready for the new wing and engine mount. Cutting out the old work was a nightmare of a job but it’s getting there.
