Congrads to the team , I think from memory the last Anson flew for the RAF in 1968 rounda bouts , m sound a very docile engine course it will be interesting to listen to two on a rebuild , is there one in the works ?.

Excellent stuff - I really can't wait to see the aircraft fly, I've always liked the Anson, even if it wasn't the most "glamorous" aircraft of WWII.
