Classic British Flight Sim

Hi Tom

I remember that being featured in Aircraft Illustrated in the early Seventies and the comments being made then on how remarkable it was that it was still air worthy.............thirty five years later :shock:

Shows what a lot of loving care can do over the years and how grateful we should be to those that are prepared to commit themselves, and that is very true for your outfit as well.

Oh! CB - you do make me laugh!

She was built in 1936, so is now 70 years old! I'm not sure how much of the orginal is left as it's been modified and rebuilt several times over the years!

Whilst not in orginal condition anymore (as per my profile) we should be very greatful to have a Mew Gull in existance given how they were treated, the prototype even being painted in fake Luftwaffe colours and burnt at the end of the war :shock:

Like Trigger's broomstick then, only faster and prettier

Very good Toby!

I stumbled across an old issue of Aeroplane Monthly with a much better photo of AEXF in original condition so the profile has been amended slightly. Also added are a few details I couldn't previously make out. decent photos of these birds are hard to come by!

Drawn up for a mate who is restoring this aircraft.

Another incredible piece of work Tom

Truly amazing

A work in progress:

Tom, as a thought from someone who is no where near as talented, would G-AEXF stick out better if you made the background off white, maybe even a pale blue?

Nice L4 Tom - but the Proctor takes the biscuit

I have always loved that aeroplane
