Was it this one, being inspected by me this September at Wright-Patterson?

I remember seeing this before, probably on this Forum, and IIRC it was mentioned then that it was CGI.

At Oshkosh in 2003, I question its airworthiness now!

Make sure that each photo file is smaller than 200kb and use
“Manage Attachments” in the “Post Reply” function to upload pictures.
In my case I use Photoshop to reduce the file size, but there are other ways to do it.

Lucky you!
I thought all Gloster’s early drawings had disappeared for ever!
I would be very interested in seeing bits of them, copyright issues permitting!

From Thomas:
“Both the DGA-4 “Mike” and the DGA-5 “Ike” were built by Benny Howard of Mr. Mulligan fame in Kansas City, MO USA in July of 1932. They were originally registered as NR55Y and NR56Y respectively. Neither of the original N-Numbers are available so I am re-registering them as NR55YV and NR56YV.”

Fame at last! I have been in touch with Thomas, who wants to put my picture of DGA 4 “Mike” on his web site, link as in my previous post.

N241Y is Benny Howard’s racer dating from 1932, now belonging to Thomas G Matowitz Jr of Mentor, Ohio, one of the gentlemen proudly standing in front of it. He has written a small book on the Cleveland Air Races, which he signed for me, but I posted it to myself with many other books on 11 September from Washington, and the parcel hasn’t arrived yet! If I had the book, I could probably give you many more details.

gives more information (I bought the T-shirt too, which has this web address on it!)

Take the biggest umbrella, longest windbreak and tallest stepladder you can find, and make sure you padlock everything to the fence by 08:00 so you’re tooled up for the flying in the afternoon.
And don’t forget if you go to Duxford, the sun (if any) will be in your face all the time so you’ll neeed to open up at least 2 stops! Otherwise it’ll be pouring with rain, which is where the umbrella comes in handy.

It looks very forlorn – there’s plenty of space for it in the Aeroseum at Gothenburg!

The other problem is that it’s spelt “Gripen”.
