    Taylor Titch Anniversary

    Hi Kevin I have been trying to locate Jim Miller and what became of his Titch, we have kept in contact over the years but I haven't heard for two years, do you know anything please?

    Taylor Titch Anniversary

    Just one thing, were you and Rhona married when we met at the local airport? How did I not realise that?!

    Taylor Titch Anniversary

    Thank you Kiwi, that is very useful and I assume similar to Jim Miller's spar. I see a lot of discussion about glues on here, Aerodux 500 seems common over here now, I think this was 185 in the earlier days but 306 was considered a lot cleaner to use. A chap rebuilding a Titch says he just uses...

    Taylor Titch Anniversary

    What thickness did you use Kiwi for each lamination? Losing all those nuts and bolts would be a real weight reduction.

John Gibson, a homebuilder and leading aerodynamicist on the Eurofighter found the PFA ban on flaps to be totally incorrect and managed to get them reinstated on...

    Taylor Titch Anniversary

    Great to see Rhona progressing with her Titch and what I think is a one piece spar, like Jim Millers, construction looks excellent. Only one other female has ever contacted me and is building a Titch in the future, Alana Spurling, literally a rocket engineer. Nobody has ever fitted one of those...
