Fantastic news: I used to see this T.5 stand on its tail and streak heavenward at Boscombe Down! It’ll be great to see her finally airborne again. Great work by the team.

You buying Sabrejet ?

Yeah go on then. Beats reading this tripe.

Well I’ve done a Tiger Moth and that was awesome, so I’d go with Stearman or Harvard for sure: a lot of places will do a dashcam-type video of your flight too (it revealed that my back-seat pilot did indeed let me do some turns because with me deep in thought in front you can see him waving his arms outside the cockpit behind me!)

It does remind me of a car speedo drive rather than being aviation-based.
