...NOT!
Great stuff, Marty - less poison, more art.
Hydraulic pistons...scissors links...grease nipples!
Gudgeon pins...trunnion blocks...Splitpins, even...
this is the stuff of dreams, precision machined goods.

Ian: are you saying the front foot of a Devon is the same as the back of a Mossie?
Just the wheel I assume?

Just the wheel , the profile off the tail without the root fairing as well along with tail plane is Mosquito , another example off the use of off parts was the nose off your two seat Vampire .
