If you get a chance at the Air Show drop in to site 14 and say g'day to Paul and Rolly from Border Aerospace Fabrication. They will be doing a demo on metal fabrication,A bit of Wheeling and patching. These guys are both LAME's. So if you have any aircraft repair or fabrication questions these are the guys to see.

I have seen a lot of these adventures usualy with other peoples money.And a lot of promises.

A metal aircraft can suffer damage and keep flying a composite scary.

Check the weather it can get hot so dress appropriately,maybee throw a fold up chair in.

I am going anyway,I want to learn a bit about composite materials so i can talk to the old farts.And if some nice person would bring maybee a Sadler Vampire???

I usualy work on Warbirds but i want to see some varieze's and other amazing plastic things.

A few skins and oil coolers,it's just a bit of metal work. He didn't bring it down on the grass did he that realy buggers them?

So do i.

Complex the Vampire maybee more complex than it need be.And a bit over priced i think,I would say future production of this aircraft is unlikely.

We make them like the factory did in two halves upper and lower.More like a boat it's easier to put the fittings in that way and i can rivet 99% by my self.

Phil the practice when they burried those things was to run the bulldosers over them to stop the bad guys from getting them,

We have 2 Spitfires coming,hopefully this year.Not sure what models though.

I just got an email from Jerry he seems happy with it.And who wouldent be.

I built some aircraft for him i might even get to finish the P-39 with any luck.

Is that Jerry yagens Mozzy?
