DR-1 Tach face
Does anyone have a good photo of a tach face for a DR-1? I am modifying mine now and want the right look. I know a site was posted on the forum recently of a website in Europe that sells "instruments"- all look, non-working- that I could probably reference, but I don't remember where the link was exactly posted, or much else. Help!
Thank You,
Jim

Avro 504 building project
Things are going well. We are in the process of building two 504's, both will be flown. They are being built to original standards accept for new engines. In building these aircraft, we have developed a lot of specialty tooling which can be used to help others. We are now able to do our own castings, 3D patterns, wire ferrules, turnbuckles, machinings, A&P 121 tubing etc... We are also a source for hard to find Spruce and Ash lumber for longerons and spars. I would encourage anyone who is interested to visit BlueSwallowAircraft dot com
Regards,
John Gaertner
