John M Oshust ManzanoLaser Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.12a Build 06-Feb-15 15:43 Views : 428 However before the reluctant task of wing fabrication can commence, a tail skid must be fabricated. Perhaps this issue may be addressed when I meet with Gumby on the morrow! John M Oshust ManzanoLaser Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.12a Build 05-Feb-15 14:00 Views : 472 About 2 PM the doorbell rings. I open the door to see a cab pulling away. Who is on the stoop but the Gumster. The other night he went to a Groundhog Day party. He hooked up with a Claymation hottie. While leaving her apartment he slipped on some ice and wound up in the hospital. John M Oshust ManzanoLaser Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.12a Build 05-Feb-15 13:59 Views : 348 Canvas ammunition belt.

I did manage to construct and install an interrupter gear mechanism that will permit the Vickers to fire through a four bladed air screw. This mechanism synchronizes engine/airscrew rotation with Vickers discharge. Pictured here you can see how the linkage enters into the engine compartment.

Upon discharge the belt would get caught in the prop wash, flail about and cause the gun to jam. The belt chute appears on Aeroplanes prior to the adaptation of a disintegrating metal link belt. I like the chute so Ogre fires canvas belted ammo!

Looking at the photos in my reference booklet, weather and abused insignias were very common.

I had hoped to have the frames covered with poly span this day, but time for cocktails arrived postponing covering until the morrow. The frames were sealed and are ready first thing tomorrow morn.
