Tipsy Nipper Parts Wanted, Please.
Hello,
I am in the middle of a total rebuild of a Slingsby built Nipper Mk3.
So far all is going well and parts have been generally easily obtained. However it is becoming obvious that with every passing year parts become more obsolete.
I am writing to ask if anybody has any parts left over from an abandoned project or previous rebuild and wants to pass them to a appreciative Nipper freak! I am not after something for nothing and will pay for any parts you may have. I plan to keep the aircraft for the duration of my flying life, hopefully another 30-40years, and want to start building a spares supply now, whilst I still can.
I am aware of Nipper kits and Raymond Cuypers in Belgium, both have been a great help. What I am hoping for here is that illusive 'barn discovery' of parts unwanted.
Thanks all for reading.
Paul.
