Guys,
a lively debate and as far as I remember almost as many inputs as the Bloctube control box conundrum, I now have a vision of Bill looking for a Duck launcher calibrated at 200MPH + and some more late nights in the workshop firing best duck at new tinware!!!! for my Penny's worth I think build the new fairings without added damage and display "stressed" ones alongside as has already been suggested.
Keep up the good work
Regards
Stuart

"Campbell commenced the first run of his last record attempt at just after 8.45." - Neil Sheppard.
To which minute
before running under power are you restoring K7 Novie?
PS my Anorak is always at the cleaners!

I know we got a particularly cold spell at the moment malcolm but surely the anorak must come off now and again...

I consider it 'bear baiting' when it comes to going toe to toe (or e mail to email) with Novie.
Why you may ask - because there was a bear pit preserved in Leeds when I first came North forty years ago and I guess it was that structure which influences my actions.

Theres a fully functional chicken launcher in Glasgow Transport Museum which Rolls Royce used to use to test the chickenproofing on jet engines-worked great until one day some doofus used a frozen chicken from Iceland and sent a new Conway engine to Valhalla!
