Thanks for that Tony D.
It will be good news indeed if some of the drawings could be found.
Even if a wreck is found and recovered one day, then because of the magnesium rear fuselage....which won't exist any longer, the drawings will be invaluable in any restoration.
Sadly I wouldn't know where to start building a Whirlwind, so perhaps someone like Skysport would take it on...either new build or restoration, they did such a superb job on the Bristol Bulldog and I'm sure they could easily handle a Whirlwind.
Happy Hunting
Cheers
Mick
