Title: Bristol Scout 1264
Post by: RichieW on July 07, 2020, 06:55:06 PM
Here are some pictures I took at Old Warden Aerodrome. Some are taken on a mobile phone which has processed the images quite heavily but on the plus side one of the stewards used it to take pictures of the interior and the tail plane. I have tried to take pictures of the kind of details that might be of interest to modellers, I hope these are useful or interesting.

I have quite a few more, large files on my Flickr account where I have made an album of this aircraft, please feel free to download anything you need to for reference material.

Great pictures with many beautiful details - that means I have to do a lot of work to create them all one day on my Bristol model! ;D ;D
Thank you Richie!

Cheers,

My pleasure Frank, the rigging is quite complex but at least there are no RAF aerodynamic flying wires to worry about in this pre war bird.

My pleasure Lance, I will be visiting this collection every week for a couple of months. Google the Shuttleworth collection and let me know any picture wants and I will gladly oblige. Original Avro 504 anyone? They have the one used in the film Reach for the Sky, it is in airworthy condition still!

Very clean for an aeroplane that throws out castor oil at such a rate!

I think it's been recovered recently. It was absolutely plastered when I saw it in February. By far the filthiest airframe I ever set eyes on. :)

You're very welcome Monty. Am hoping to get nice detail shots of the Bristol M1c and Avro 504 on Wednesday.

If you get a chance, see what color the undersides of the Bristol M1c wings are. ( I am curious how far off I got on a 1/72 one I built years ago)
TIA

Just finished reading the book about its creation - well worth a read if you’ve not done so already

Richie, I found a company doing wooden props with a CNC mill:
https://www.hercprops.com/

In their gallery there is a beautiful prop shown made for a Bristol Scout:

But it seems not to be the one on the Scout you shown here?

Cheers,
Frank

Just bumping this back to the top now that CSM's glorious looking kit is arriving on doorsteps.

If you click on any of the picture links it should take you to a more comprehensive set of pictures on Flikr. Please feel free to download and use any of them to help with your modelling projects.
