Recently I visited the Willis Warbirds factory in the heart of Essex.
A fantastic line up of future kit prototypes are in the making.
However, good old Chris, in the picture, forgot where he was there for a minute, very few people know that between working on a fine selection of warbirds he is also nearing completion of a half scale model of the Mary Rose in the garden.

The skills he can draw on are limitless.

Will the Mary Rose be laser cut ?

I wondered why I got a text today saying I had a big Chopper, fealt quite proud then, but now know why it was said forgot about that Mike, ha ha quicker than a razor plane. Don't tell em I cut the wings in half with my chainsaw

[Mike Booth]

It was the oak wingtips trimmed down with the chipper that impressed me. anyway she's looking good for a tangle with the Spit's.

[chris willis]

Got the top surface of the wings sprayed, now ready for the markings,
