Well Martin that point and shoot gives a good result.Very nice.

Didn’t know there was a magazine called Yak 1:D:D

Personally I have always liked the look of it,always thought the piston engine looked better than the turbo-prop though.

It’s reported in a certain monthly mag that these 2 flyable aircraft built by ‘The Vintage Aviator’ team have been acquired for the museum and that there is a chance that they will be flown at a Shuttleworth display before being grounded. What a waste!

So are they really going to come,or is it supposition?.Any more news?

Well thanks guys,sorry to hear it was a washout,glad I didn’t make it but sorry for the collection,not a lot of luck this year so far for them.

How did it go?.I wanted to make it, but such a rotten day down here and 130+ mile drive to a possible no go put a damper on it for me I’m afraid.

Always liked the colour scheme of G-FIRE,I flew up to Elstree with a mate in the summer of 1982 and she was in the hangar there and looked lovely in red.She also attended a few PFA rallies at Cranfield if I recall correctly and I seem to remember the white exhaust stacks,but never really thought about them till they were mentioned in this post.
