First, just great, thanks from 2024 AU, love your Hurricane. Quick question. Couldn't you blokes stick a small camera on her & grab a live feed pretty easily? That would be cool.

[@waynebutler343]

Lovely as usual Richard... Just on with building the MR 1/4.5 one myself. Which retracts did you use ?

[@EricaFiore]

@@tbobborap1 OMG…Molly & I are in our mid seventies and hate stories like yours. We’ve both had full vaccinations and 6 month boosters but still mask up for shopping. Our prayers are with you and your family. Jim

What is a long engine? Twin inline? Nice flying and a greaser landing, good camera work as also.
