I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

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.
