discussion Dusty old "loft" planes

[Guest]

I am sure some of you have dreamt of "descovering" a virtual treastre trove of old aricraft/parts up in someone's loft, just waiting to be rebuilt.

Here is a pic of exactly that.

I need to build a set of Tiger Moth wings for a client and here are just some of the parts he has collected over the years.

Complete Tiger Fuse, stacks of tailplanes, sideframes and boxes full of "stuff"

In the background you can also see a Zlin 226 project we are selling.

Great fun is to be had by all!

PS. yes that is actually loads of genuine "loft" dust on it all. LOL!

Great find Theuns. The only thing that would annoy me about that lot is the fact that the lager box in picture 2 has no cans in it!!

Cheers,

Tell you what....It puts to shame the one the Allied prisoners built in the attic of Colditz Castle during WW2!

That is the new TamiGawaFix series of "large" scale kits.

A tad on the pricy side though LOL!
