Thanks Drapes,
Yes, definite interest, shame about the Whirlwind Volume, but a fabulous series of books Can you e-mail me off forum, to hammer out the details?

The plan is to skin the aircraft in aluminium, as magnesium, is a little bit impractical, from a durability and cost point of view !

It is a pretty amazing aircraft. what it could have done with merlins, is anyones guess, but I imagine, very much a single seat mossie...

Thanks to all who are contributing, keep racking the brain cells, we need everything, photos, info etc, nothing too small, and nothing refused!

Best regards
Tony
