    Hi
    I am reading interceptor fighters by bowyer on page 53 he mentions the hurricane and spitfire floatplanes being high priority, then mentions that the order was also applied to the Lysander and gladiator.
    Anyone seen a Lysander sketch ?
    cheers
    Jerry

    Never seen a Lysander on floats, even in her role as an air-sea-rescue aircraft not – only one on skis.

    Another effort to find a trace of F-AIGO –
    Am looking for owners of Jane’s All the World’s Aircraft 1926 or 1927.
    Anybody?
    It’s too expensive to buy one (between 400 and 600 Euros:eek:) and with the risk, that no photo of Hanriot 320, F-AIGO will be in it…
