Thanks mate!
I feel your pain having to shelve your project for the moment. Hope you get back to it soon.
Yeah the odds of two aussies building two versions of full scale vipers at the same time would have to greater than winning lotto. Getting the pair of them together would be a world first and a whole lot of fun!

Thanks Baz! Slowly getting there - now that summer is over, it’ll be a lot more pleasant working out in the shed. Much better for you as well, I’d imagine, to get your shed finished so you can get back onto the viper.
