She is very nice indeed.
I do like these vintage gliders. You don’t see too many “out in public” as such do you?
Last year, or the year before, at our (the Vintage Aircraft Club’s) Vintage & Classic day we had a Slingsby Gull (IIRC) roaded in. A beautiful aircraft indeed.
Thanks for that.
EASA – a dirty word for many these days.
Any chance of a photo or two of your remaining fleet?
Not surprised you got some odd looks.
The Dove looks very rough. What is the story behind her?
I’d like to know what the two(?) gliders are. One trailered and a second “loose” behind ‘Bouncy‘
Some really nice photos and threads – thanks for sharing.
Faaaaantastic news.
Really made my day that.
ATVB Steve & looking forward to having you back on here.
Many thanks Annette for taking the time to keep us all informed during what has no doubt been a hard time for you all.
Take care

Asking Price:£15,000.00 😮
I know I thought that too myself.
I suppose they are still useable – Blimey think how much it’d cost to fill!!! 😮
Something a bit different.
A side of preservation that gets over looked?
different
Well done to you one and all.
Here’s to hoping that she can become whole again. 🙂
I can confirm it existed too as I have seen it but I do not have a copy to hand.
I’m not sure but it maybe copied in Stuart MacKay’s excellent Tiger Moth history book.
I’ve managed nothing, been nowhere remarkable, and so have been consistent in being bored.

Not many people know that!:)
Just thought your initial post might have led readers thinking yesterday was the first flight.;)
I didn’t. I read it that it was the first time the owner flew her. Mind you I also remember reading somewhere of BM’s piloting of the first flight
Congratulations to Mr. Ford.
Any photos of the moment or of a really big smile of the owner then BM?
And how long until the BE.2 joins her in the air for a duel?
