Mark, I have Two Bobs Perfect Storm Tiffies.

11, 17, 29 Sqn markings

ZJ927, ZJ939, ZJ932, ZJ910.

Single seaters, but you could jiggle the numbers maybe.

Any use to you ?

the next task and one ive been putting off for a while is the canopy

and yet again we have a wacking seam down the middle, why cant manufactures come up with a better way of doing this.

now the glass is very very flimsy, and i was worried about cracking the plastic, anyway, out with a new blade and scrape the excess off them out with the micromesh

after an hour of buffing and sanding (and no breaks or cracks) a coat of KLEAR and here we are
