Beaufighter restoration has slowed but is not dead! Kym Stazaker the main man on the project has left for pastures new in Norfolk & has not been replaced. I am continuing to work on items which are not immediately visible. The material is in for the flying control spars, the ribs have been made for the rudder & are being made for the elevator, ailerons to follow. Spar flanges are being made for the tailplane & the extrusions are ready for machining.
The engine bearer has been re-designed to take a later engine. On that subject, can anybody locate any ex Hastings Hercules 216 powerplants? We have one powerplant & several engines,need another powerplant. Hope that helps.
Peter
