Handley Page HP42 Renovation.

Just so you know what I have been up to. I have been working hard to peel off as many years I can on a very old 94" Handley Page HP42 - A very old girl indeed who has seen better days. The work is nearing completion and with a bit of luck she should take to the air again in style....
The story has been going on for some time on the RCM&E site and if your interested in all the videos done take a look http://www.modelflying.co.uk/forums/postings.asp?th=81583

Glad to see that smile finally coming out.
You are doing a great job there Pete, a renovation to be proud of.
As you know, I've been following your progress vids and got to say that the HP42 is looking really good, nothing like when you first got it, its like a different plane now.
Well worth all the time and effort you've put into bring the old girl back to life - roll on the maiden..........

Thanks Dave - I dont think anyone except Jan would know how much time has gone into renovating this old girl - If she was a youg girl then it would make sense...
