There was a CAP232 at the show (F-GKMZ) Flown by Richard Pickin.

The Twister as far as i know is a british build. 🙂

Oh I know that one has french reg but is based at Headcorn Aerodromme.

Piston engines into reverse thrust:confused:

they say that on Wikipedia see Propellers:

Thanks all for the comments. 🙂

James – the DC-6 actually only used around half of the runway to get up! Very quick a early take off. Landin it only used about the same too – it was put straight into reverse thrust as soon as it hit the deck.

The aircraft in the last picture is a Wells Silence Twister – built in 2005.

😮 Wow only half of the runway that is good did they use reverse thrust on all four engines?

Oh is it I thought it was that french plane think its called a CAP but thank you for that info I take its british?

Brillaint shots there Andrew like the 1st Grace spitfire shot & the DC-6 shots has to be the biggest aircraft to land there did it use much of the runway at all oon take off? That last shot the wings look like a spitfire but is it know as a cap? :confused:
