Went to cabooture yesterday and meet up with a buddy who is a aviation engineer working on warbirds. He took me round the place, i helped him work on taking a broken Oil pump bracket off a Winjeel. Had the lovely thing of helping with some bits on the mustang around the engine panels. here are two pics, Excuse how smug i am.



heres the scale of the plane compared to me. I am about 5ft 10.

This one has not been modified it has the standard start sequence that the a2a mustang has. so i could have started it up, if the engine was not having problems with the mixture.
