Re: C-1 Autopilot Release Control Yoke Switch Wanted

This is the switch, I managed to get mine off of evilbay, brand new, for $40.
But I have never seen them on there again since.
Good luck, and I will keep my eyes open for you.

Re: Desert Rat update?

Well us Brits are very reserved dont you know...... :lol:

I am only jealous as I do not have a complete B-17 to call my own.

Just finished my hydraulic tank.... so this is classed as a 'bit' .

Very well done on the progress

Re: Updates for B-17 and B-25 News posted

Scott,
the unidentified tail section in the latest news is from F-BEEA, if you look at the very end you can see the antenna (white rectangular box) and compare with the photo i took of the remains being removed during the memphis belle film that you posted a while back.

Hope this helps

A little bit more

Just some pics of the floor section that I am putting together, so i can have the cockpit from Blk 4 forward.
I am going to fit this to what I already have and work backwards, so I can get the top turret in as well now.
