Start up pics.

Will do this one from the 6th Training Sqn Australian Flying Corps.

Probably cant get much more Aussie than an a/c with an iconic Kangaroo.

Thanks everyone. Started on the engine and just puttering. Have 4 ignition leads made, 12 to go. Using the microscope and it is easier for this stuff. Now if only my hand and arm would cooperate.

Looking good James. Those open inspection points just beg for some hyperdetailing don't they?

Looking pretty good James

Here's a question for you WW I enthusiast : Did they use varnish on the wood those days or was it Shellac ?
