Thanks Graham. That'd be a great feature to read! There are numerous copies of Classic Wings in the crew room at Skysport, which instantly grab my attention every time I'm there. Problem is, as I'm only in once a week, reading your excellent magazines takes me away from working on Beau bits.
Funny you should mention overhauled sub-assemblies being bagged and boxed. That sounds rather familiar... :)
