LoggyDriver Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 Hello and welcome. I am also in Oxfordshire. Are you planning to fly it in the Ridgeway area? Quote
scaryflyer Posted August 2, 2009 Author Posted August 2, 2009 Many thanks for the warm welcome, my workshop is near Stroud in Gloucestershire and the Eindecker is about 80% complete, all the main structure is finished as are the control systems. Currently I'm working on the engine installation and the front metalwork, once this is finished she will be ready for covering. George Quote
