    Why? its on indespension all round, with high speed tyres, taper roller wheel bearings, and braked on the rear; thats better than Junk collector’s car!

    I was thinking something more like

    Cheers

    A Land Rover firing on all cylinders does the job well ๐Ÿ™‚

    Haha ๐Ÿ˜€ I ment wheels and clearance, go over a bump at 40 and it might not do it good. Or go up a gravel road and the stones could fly up and chip it. So having abit more ground clearance and bigger wheels might be of benefit.

    A variation on a theme.

    the problem with that is you cant realy tow it behind a car, you need somethin with bigger wheels

    Looking at the Historic forum!

    Thats about it for me, I do “aviation” all year and i should imagine the family are sick of it. So im taking some time out and time to relax.

    Do your costings include hangarage?

    Keeping any aircraft as an ‘investment’ not under cover is a fairly faint hope.

    Moggy

    Thereโ€™s lots of questions here like the one above.

    How much is the whole project? By that i mean the whole aircraft

    How many shares in the project are going to be offered? Will this depend on what money people can offer?

    Where is the aircraft in question going to be based?

    Will it be under cover?

    what are the costs involved in that and keeping it at an airfield?

    Who will maintain the aircraft?

    How will it be operated?

    If you can have a good answer for the following you might get many more interested

    Tho i wish you all the very best, if this works out it could be a very good thing ๐Ÿ™‚ you can never have too many daks about
