A shiny finish to Shorts Tucano ZF372, which is displayed in our Hangar 2.
Great to see that our #Tucano #ZF372 has been receiving some great #NAMspruceUp attention in #NAMHangar2 - what wonderful volunteers we have!
If you're heading our way check out the excellent #NAMrestoration work that's been completed on #Tucano #ZF372 & you still have just one week left to catch the #Swift before it departs to Wales!

The propeller is now fitted to the front of our Shorts Tucano aircraft in display Hangar 2
Nice to see some progress on fitting the propeller to our #Tucano #ZF372 - some great #NAMrestoration work by our talented volunteers

#NAMinDetail
So far we've been unable to source any genuine engine bearers, or engine for our #Tucano #ZF372 so our talented volunteers have been fabricating a mounting configuration to allow the propeller to be fitted to the airframe!

Some #NAMinDetail photos of a couple of current #NAMrestoration projects - work underway on one of the #Hastings crew seats from #TG517 & on the nose of #Tucano #ZF372
That's a very nice photo, but we're not sure that we will be painting #ZF372 in those colourful markings!
Prompted by some feedback about our #Tucano rebuild of #ZF372 here are some #DTEParchive photos of its arrival in the autumn!
