Hi Mr. G

Take a trip up the road to Dowty Propellers  ;)  I know the company (originally Rotol) weren't making propeller blades as early as your one, but someone may know!  Rotol made blades for the spitfire amongst others.

Typical again!  He's always first to remind us of the dreaded forthcoming 'festive' season!  He's a big kid really - dressed up as a Christmas Elf!

P.S.  I wonder if his elfin ears are burning?

Not loud enough 'cos Susan's got a point he's only down the road from Dowty's, and I bet they've got an archive.
