Well, as the Saucy Mr HP says, Pics fascinate, so here's a selection of G-AFBS, with many technical thanks to MOTF.

Fingers crossed:




A British Thompson Houston widget. These guys later got involved in the early jet manufacture IIRC.




An overall view of the a/c in November 2003



The firewall.



The Mapcase awaiting its referbishment...




The kid of suite of pictures you want when restoring an aircraft - in this case, actually correct for that machine!



The flappy things to go up and down with, with a side to side thingy at right.



The items to moderate student landings...



A Gosport tube set - amazingly rare and expensive but required for a museum level restoration.



Interior of the rear cockpit.



Showing the level of work - fuel tank in the wing centre section, the aeromodel style woodwork on the wing training edge, the access cover for the rear fuselage interior which is the floor of the luggage locker is the object on the wing.

A superb job being done here.

Cheers
James
