Status: offline 		Need some help here guys, I have aquired some parts from Ebay, the easy bit is done, I know what they are and who made them. they are from the De Haviland Mosquito and since the fibreglas cowls have Rawle Aviation imprinted on them it was not to difficult to work where they came from. So what am I doing on here....well Richard Rawle does two mossies and I do not know which I have got, and since I do not have a plan yet, it is I critical piece of info me thinks. I'm fairly confident the parts I have are the 1/5 scale 121"span version...the other one being 1/4 scale 162" span. Contact Rawle Aviation I hear you say....tried that but no reply. So here goes, the ally spinners I have are 6 1/4" in circumference.....can anyone tell me if that would equate to 1/5 scale ?
Incidently I got cowls, ally spinners with backplates, canopy, front bubble, u/c doors

Status: offline 		Big OOOOOPS I meant diameter in the first instance which would make the circumference something like 19"+
was'nt thinking when posed the question, so yes the spinners dia is 6.25 inches, the reason I ask is I am not that good with "scales" and I not sure how accurate Richards version is.....I was kinda hoping maybe someone on here may have built one in the past, but thanks for pointing that out Laird ss

Status: offline 		Thanks Chad.....just confirms my first thoughts....I was thinking 1/4 scale the spinners were going to be around 8" dia
