Hi Cees
Does the mossie museum have a cockpit section ?
A Hornet should be a easier rebuild than a whirlie and i suppose the next best thing after a comet.
There was a sea hornet fuselage in a scrappies in plymouth many years ago but it dissapeared. ( It came from the local civil defence centre when it close. I have a pic somewhere of it )
cheers
Jerry
