Re: Tailspin's VP-1 Project & Sun Bird Deviation
Hi All
After the Hobby-Xpo I had to open the turtle Deck as a very clever person had dropped the wing Jig frame on the aircraft and well here is the damage to the one bulkhead.
Sorry for the bad Pic but cell phone was all i have after my Camera has been removed from my Case during my travels. And the Fix that i have put in - Not totally finished but well it is a Fix.

Am sure there be destructors at Barra-G. Check with Noel, Brian Zee or Mike G, else there is John Schraader at Rustenberg or Johan (IIRC) at Parys.

Don't know were Barra-G is but you can try Cyril Manser at Rhino Park, he is my instructor on a tail dragger.

Hi Gavin, at Cyril`s you will probably be doing the conversion in a BB!! Strongs mate. And remember to sit still with your feet. It`s like it was in the army: "Do not speak unless spaken unto." If the aerie does nothing, so do you! Easy. whatever, ENJOY
