NZ 6254 part 3

[Splitpin]

More pics....from last week....i dont think these made it onto the internet yet.

















It only took those guys 3 days to put the aircraft back together.

Is that another P-40 in the background in the 2nd to last pic??

Instruction 1 .. repaint here (Oh already done ) , now carefully glue this part 1A to part 1B ... smack in the chops by Sgt James ... We do not do that in this Hanger 'SIR'

Marty this is a great series you are showing us - I hope some of these can be worked into the exhibit.

Yeah that shot mating the wing: I swear the Airfix model worked exactly like that.
And just use the pin with a drop of glue, if it smeared it would ruin the rivet line!

Charl, there will be a set of photos showing the whole process on display with the aircraft in about a weeks time, i think the public will be interested in seeing that.
