Great pictures as always, Matthias! What kind of parts are you short on the MKIXT? It is good to see MJ772 getting some real attention, it always seemed like it was a bit of a "hard luck" survivor.
some work on the TF

Time for some updates folks !
The Buchon project is growing, the TF-project is growing, the Spitfire T9 is neraly ready to fly, the Noordyn AT-16 is undergoing some restauration efforts and the center-section of the SeaFury wing is in the shop. TE184 is under maintenance also. Will say some work in the shop and time for a bigger update
at first the AT-16 D-FRCP, love that old lady ! Shes in a good shape, but needs minor restauration.
Elmar is discussing the next steps with Jochen and Juergen
maingear
wingsection, the color is already washed of to proof this special and sensitiv section
interesting detail, never seen on a AT-6 ... the gunbay
the fuselage some days later
Elmar checking the wingstructure
flaps
last week, some work at the electrical system ... pretty original ! I love that, keeping the old things together
as I said ... some work

Buchon, the bigger parts
wingsection, right wing ready sheeted, overview
closer
fuselage overview
cockpit section, good to see the (temporarely) installed wooden mainboard
a bit closer. The "clocks" on the right side are not the original ones. The original intruments will be revised and attached soon
one of the most interesting and complexiest parts of the Messerschmitt Bf109, the socalled "D-Beschlag" , the attchement point for the maingear
attachment point of the wing
port side, a lot of work for the sheet-workers. All old parts/sheets are checked and possibly exchanged
another complex part for the hydraulic system
and again the "D-Beschlag"
