Work on the Tripehound moves slowly onwards. Work pressure has seen this project get slowly behind schedule, but here is a view from the pilots seat. Lots of detail work to be done yet !
WILGA Update
The motor is with Ian at the moment being sorted out. Once I can find some table space I will make a start on the refurb.
News from Proflooney is that the fe2b drawings are well on the way. Looks like this is going to be a next winter project at this rate. I need to get the Triplane finished, and of course Maiden the Pup, take my BMFA B certificate and then get my LMA proficiency !! In the meantime I will give the Neuiport a clean up.

AFTER what feels like for ever we are back in business. With one badly placed click , I screwed the entire web page up. £40 and 1 hour from a specialist and we are back on line !
Over the Chrisrtmas hols I did a bit of Balsa bashing on the Triplane, and had a major sort out in the workshop. And we also got to have a fiddle with some of Mr Redshaws gear. Below is a nice 21 foot wingspan Wellington which came into Ians possesion a little will back. the model needs a bit of TLC to get her back into the air. Nothing to drastic, but knowing Ian he will give the aircraft a make over and a few of his "scale" touches.. More photos of this and other bits and bobs in the Wizzo's words section. |

| Molly the dog and I got a bit bored today, so she took over the chair in front of the heater, whilst I did a bit of titivating on "Baby Mine" I also pursuaded Michael to come and play "Pit Bitch" for ten minutes while I ran the engine up. All we need is a nice sunny day and I will have run out of excuses why to not to fly this one ! |

| Tripehound progress was slowed by a mid Christmas stomach bug, but wing production is now underway.There are hundreds of riblets to go at . but I have managed to get two wing panels done.I could not resist a dry assembly run just to see what she is going to look like ! |
