Hi Nick.
My little summer house has been nice to use for the early stages of assembly,while the
weather has been too wet for the open air assembly on the patio.
She is fast becoming a big lady to turn round and roll over and the early dressing up
will have to be done in the garage anyway :)
Hoping for a scortcher this summer.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil. I'm so jealous. Would love another Tiger. I'm in Saumur tonight. Got in 2 hours before museum closed. Will have to go again tomorrow. Will take lots of photos. Hope they will be of use.

Hello Phil, the Tiger is already well on the way, mind you do not scratch the furniture.
I expect you enjoyed the Cosford Air Show.....the Welshpool show was very good. Red Arrows, Lancaster/Spitfire, no Hurricane ( oil leak ). Fine weather.
I only have one usable photograph......yesterday evening, tired and weary....I somehow managed to delete all the photo's of the Comet display, and the visitors, who came to see the Armortek tank. I still have no idea how this happened.....silly old git comes to mind.
Anyway, I am enjoying your build...regards Mick.

Hi Mick,
Yes the hull is sitting on a strong but polished marble table at the moment,but
I have it well padded.
I didnt go to Cosford Air show,because I guessed it would be rain and low cloud base
and all the fast Jets would have to abbandon,even the Red Arrows would have had to do
just a low show in stead of the full.
It didnt clear up hear untill mid afternoon and 3 Meteors flew over sambourne on the way
to the Show.
I am going to The Yeovilton Air show Saturday,never miss that one.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Gerrit
For some reason they didnt line up with the rear deck side suppot brackets,they were
higher and every thing else was no problem.
It didnt take long and I fixed them from inside,I will fill any empty holes later.
Regards
Phil
