C'mon Kane, hurry up and get home. We all want to hear how you went at JapNat's. I couldn't make it but my brother and sister-in-law said your exa was "Friggen Awesome"

fighter planes in ww2 were made of sheet metal I think you'll will find C other than the hurracane which was the last of the canvas mono planes and the p51 fight boomber I think was the starts of the aluminum planes
could be wrong

Looks the goods Kane. As usual the detail work is astounding. Isn't that two "Public Choice 80's" trophies in a row?

As I said, my Bro and his missus loved your exa, they said it was the second best car there on the day (They are biased, because they ended up taking the trophy for "Best 2000's" in my Sister-in-law's Evo VII). From everything I've heard it was a bloody awesome day, I'm a bit sorry I missed it.

Hopefully sometime in the next year I'll find a part-time job that will work in with Uni hours, and I can get one or both of my ET's ready in time for next years Jap-Nat's.

I think you might be wrong...the Dakota (ie DC3) was first built int he mid '30s and was definitely Aluminium. The Zero had a very high magnesium content which 'added to lightness' (colin chapman quote!) but made it "slightly" flameable!

Looks awesome, great work! You going to do anything inside? not having the doorcards suits it, but the plates on the floor spoil it a bit...

The aluminum would react with the steel / stainless anyway... More or less depending on the grades used
