Farmer matt Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 (edited) Hello to you all, My father Brian Lawrence produced a range of white metal aircraft kits in the 1970s/80s. The original brass masters were destined to be weighed in for scrap, so what had been collated ensembles became a box of random parts which may or may not equal an uncertain number of airframes. Or scrap basically. Anyway, Malc2 suggested that some fun could be had trying to identify the various bits, so to that end I photographed a selection for your entertainment here, providing I get the pics up which this is a bit of a test for. For amusement only, there are no prizes, see what you can spot! Matt.

Jure Miljevic Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Hello, on the top photo there is a Pou-du-ciel's aft wing in the right-hand lower corner, with its rudder in the middle of the photo near its right edge. Bathtube-like part on the opposite side of the same photo is Pou-du-ciel's fuselage. Her fore wing is on lower photo in its right-hand upper corner. Cheers Jure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerobat Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) I seem to remember a Pitts Special and I see a bottom fuselage / wing in the top photo and upper fuselage and upper wing in the second.

Farmer matt Posted April 17, 2022 Author Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) Aerobat, there was no problem with your post as I recall. I wasn 't sure how people would react, whether just looking, posting what they'd spotted, arguing about it, or just wandering off again because they werent interested. I have a WIP running at the moment for the LDM Christen Eagle, so there is a bit of general LDM conversation around that, but I thought this would do better elsewhere. Feel free to join in over there. Regards, Matt. I am clueless about the symbol thing, I tried to leave a heart 'like' but no idea if that is what you got. So help if you know how its done!!

Aerobat Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Thank you. I had second thoughts about ruining the "quiz" part with that removed link. I also see it is already in your WIP thread. 😍 your symbol came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malc2 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Matt, How did I miss this!!!!!!! Only just found it by chance, I can identify most of them! Malc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
