hi, visiting Squires Gate yesterday and in hangar 8 were 2 fuselage frames, both similar they looked old build not modern frames, 1 had a skid on , both seemed to be two seater's, 1 had a couple of panels on and were white there also was a white cowl with 6 blue diamonds evenly spaced (colour scheme?)and a incomplete radial engine on a pallet. There was also a darkish blue cowl for a radial engine, near the other fuselage. The man showing me around didn't know anything about them and when I last visited last October they were not there, anyone know anything about them?
regards, jack...

hi, just a update in case anyone's interested, the fuselages, 1 is G-BIIZ a 1929 Great Lakes 2T-1A reputed to be unique in Europe, the 2nd fuselage is a donor, it has been registered to Airborne Adventures ltd. IOM 4/4/16, so hopefully it might be flying again in the future...
regards, jack...
