Not the first time in twelve years, she has made several test flights recently with Clive Davidson at the controls;)
We look fwd to her displaying at Sywell Airshow:)

Being used as a crudely lashed up Generator/ Heater?? as for where, no idea!!
Fail to see what any of this slagging off of Top Gear and its presenters has to do with Historic Aviation and wonder why the Mods havent pulled it:confused:
Much better;)
Very Nice:)
Can i suggest the title of thid thread is changed!! Gear collapsed whilst taxing!!
Fantastic news, congrats to Maurice and all involved. Brilliant!

Sywell Airshow 2008:
BE2 pilots worst nightmare!!
What we got upto later!!!!
SA 750 Acroduster II, G-BUGB. 🙁 Wishing the pilot a speedy recovery. Our thoughts are with him and his family and friends at this most terrible time.
Please lets not spiral into inapropriate speculation, people who know this man are reading this.:(
What engine does this replica use? Looks like rotary cylinders beneath the cowling, or are they just dummies?
Also, are the ‘skids’ on the lower wing as fitted to the original? The Fokker triplane replica at Old Warden has these too (hickory sledge-hammer handles from the look of them :D).
Looks very nice by the way. 🙂
Creaking Door, this IS the replica that was at Old Warden for a while.
Now based at Sywell.;)
Been making the centre section ribs today;)
Although i did also find time to have a look over this baby to see if she is viable to get to the Sywell Airshow;)
The pale struts betwixt the wings. Are they a fabric strap or marine ply?
Spruce i belive!
Excellent news………..
Now stop standing around admiring it – we need the BE in the air too!! :diablo:
