Very nice. I like the line-up shot. Glad you got the Lizzie before they dragged the old girl back into the hangar. ;)

 On the lineup photo, methinks you started from the wrong end

The Shuttleworth Lizzie is Canadian and was brought over to the Strathallan Collection in the 70's. When that dispersed it went into storage until it was announced one day the Shuttleworth had bought it...

Its in the 161 Sqn markings of Plt Off Peter Vaughan-Fowler of the top of my head. It's been fitted with a dummy long range tank and the steps. The relevance to the collection, other than being a vintage british aircraft, is that RAF Tempsford, the famous SOE base is 4 miles up the A1... Its also the collections second WWII Westland product, as the Spitfire is a Yeovil built example...

Haven't found a decent one for FS9 - although I made the mistake of buying the Icarus one - the only FS9 payware I've removed from my PC... :o
