    Torelli-customized Parker "51" Flighter--stainless steel hood, connector, and cap jewel. Quite hefty (probably over 35 grams now), but well-balanced and confidence-inspiring. He also tuned the nib, which now glides over the paper with no pressure!

    Part of the day was a 45 Flighter. It has a F/EF nib - not sure which.

    Even harder to find this side of the pond. I was lucky enough to buy it from a fine gentleman Zhivago on here. Even with the bastardly import tax I'm still over the moon with it. If I ever work out the photos on this site I'll post some.

    My original idea is complete! Gone is the aerometric filler--the ink reservoir is now detachable and transparent for easy flushing and level-viewing! An o.k shot of Brad Torelli's excellent work.
