Night Fright Restoration Update - August 2020

Catchup with all things Night Fright as Charlie recaps the goings on from Coventry over the past couple of months.
Focus has mainly been on progressing the cabin. Tom has been looking at details such as litter straps and the parapack manual release bracket. This will allow some really good visual progress in Sep and Oct including the final paint finish in the cabin.
As always there is plenty happening besides the restoration progress itself, website updates, new merchandise updates including a new range for our younger fans
and a few other exciting things that we will tell you about soon 👀
As ever a huge thanks to Heritage Air Services and all the team behind the scenes particularly Neil and Joe.
Thanks for the continued support, Charlie.

Night Fright has become my favorite aircraft restoration anywhere in the World. I am so excited to see her back in the air one day.

It's a magnificent aircraft who's restoration is truly a labor of love and Night Fright deserves every bit of tender loving care you are giving her. Fabulous. Thanks to all the resoration crew and the contributors helping to bring this extraordinary piece of WWll history back to life.

That C-47 will be the guild of quality and standard.

Wonderful attention to detail, surely Nightfright will be on the wishlist of film makers of WWII period films & hopefully a possible scource of earning som cash to cover what I'm sure is a very expensive bird both to restore insure & run with todays health & safety criteria.

[@thenightfrightc-47restorat43]

We look forward to some potential film work in the future Alycia!

[@MartynStubbsTBS]
