As the title says, 'm looking for a turbo prop engine that would be suitable for fitting onto the front of a small fighter in place of the current piston one. . Does anybody have one they can let go, or point me in the direction where I can obtain one? It's needed for the Pegasus GB for this years SMW. Thanks.

About 15mm wide. I need it to go on the front of that Aresnal VG33 I got for the build. the plan is to upgrade it with a turbo prop and tip tanks as a close support machine.

Lance, it might be worth dropping Airfix customer services an e-mail & asking them for a pair of engines & props from their Fokker Freindship.  They're very good, they won't reply to you but you'll just get them in the post one day.  You shouldn't have to pay either, unless things have changed.  If you can't get them, let me know & I might be able to spare one from my kit.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
