It’s not all Spitfires here at Supermarines, we get asked many times to manufacture parts for other warbirds, in this case pipework for the BBMF’s Lancaster PA474 as she has major refurbishment work carried out by our friends at ARCo at Duxford.
We have developed a process that captures the fits, route and tolerances of the pipework which is transferred to jigs which can then be used many times to replicate the pipes in the future, this system has been used to capture all Spitfire variants as well as Mosquito sets we made for the superb aircraft manufactured down-under by Avspecs.
