Rigging the Felixstowe

Tools, Techniques, and Reference Materials Techniques

I’m about ready to ‘wire’ the Felixstowe F2a and I am hoping some good suggestions would come from the forum. I would prefer not to cut the rigging wires to length as I did in building the Fairey Swordfish. It becomes too tedious and the Felixstowe has more in the way of rigging. Thx, Bill

Hi bpalmer11,

The Felixstowe is one heck of a kit from all I’ve read. What do you think of it so far?

Here’s a couple of good pages on rigging that will probably help you:
