It is indeed a magnificent model you have made! Are you still by any chance working on the propeller? It is of a very unusual kind, a Fairey-Reed, all metal, rather flat propeller type. Most difficult to envisage how it was twisted, from flat at the center, to its largest pitch just outside the spinner, then back again to almost flat at the rim. A challenge, indeed.

I knew nothing about that, until a small discussion here (at Kartonbau.de, but in English).

I haven't seen the instructions or parts for the Halinski kit; just thought that being prepared might make it easier for you.

This is simply a brilliant build!! Your talents are quite evident and masterfully displayed throughout this build...the final work on the propeller being just one outstanding example.

Thank you so very much for sharing photos of your superb build with all of us, they are so impressive and enjoyable to see!

Cheers!
Jim
