14th January 2026 - Construction of a new hydraulic Header Tank
Work is currently ongoing with the construction of a new hydraulic header tank from original drawings. Parts are tinned with lead solder as per the original drawings (creating a dull silvery appearance) and some sheet metal parts were also spun on the lathe. Some press tools were also machined up by Elliott to aid with the fabrication. hopefully in the near future it can be riveted up. the filler cap is identical to that on an Airspeed Oxford!
