This project has been exceptionally frustrating (the airplane fought us every step of the way) but the wing and rudder are reinstalled with new fabric and she’s just waiting on rigging to get back in the air! #aviation #aircraftrestoration #fabricwork #womeninaviation

Progress on restoration of the smallest aircraft in our collection, Robinson R22 Beta restored as ZK-HDB(5) which started as a very battered cab, a boom and bits. Still looking for an engine if anyone has a dead Lycoming O-320 lying around. #avgeek #helicopters #r22 #aircraftrestoration #ferrymead

Lots of work going on in our workshops at the moment! #aviation #ferrymead #aircraftrestoration #helicopters #avgeek
Trial fit of the starboard wingtip for Mosquito HR339 as wing repairs continue. Work continues on refitting engine components to Harvard NZ1058. Robinson R-44 cab has taken the place of it's smaller sibling in the restoration bay. This unlikely item is part of the radio rack from a Short Sunderland flying boat. Clearly the blokes at Short Brothers and Harland Ltd were Meccano Boys. Once restored this will be fitted to the cockpit section of NZ4112.

Arsenal VG-33 and the Arsenal Sud Restauration Project
The Arsenal VG-33 was a French World War II-era fighter aircraft developed by Arsenal de l’Aéronautique as part of the VG-30 series of lightweight interceptors. It represented one of France’s most promising aviation designs at the time, blending modern aerodynamic lines with practical construction techniques. Origins and Design The VG-33 first took to the air on April 25, 1939. Designed to be fast, agile, and easy to produce, it featured a largely…

Cockpit fitout continuing - albeit some parts are only temporarily fitted in order to measure up for wiring looms. The blind flying panel is being built up, cosmetically at this stage, until we make all the plumbing. As ever, the Mossie looks to be going 250MPH while standing still. Plumbing under the cockpit floor for the flap, undercarriage and bomb door hydraulics, brake and gun pneumatics, instrument vacuum and windscreen deicing is all now back in place along with the large silver gun heating duct and the various wiring bundles. The recoil mechanisms for the 20mm Hispano cannon will go in next, then the fairing panel can be replaced to hide it all away. There is an amazing amount of stuff to go into the cockpit, not all well-documented. This terminal block is for wiring associated with the downwards pointing F24 camera in the rear fuselage. Unlike most places there is a placard specifying which wires go where. The placard was laser etched for us by Owen Booth at Wiseartz.
