    Wouldn’t that then mean that East Fortune would have 2 ‘Storch’ derivatives? One with an Argus and one with a radial.

    Shocking landing by the Stearman pilot though wasn’t it DCW…rumour has it he was charged four landing fees ! :diablo: 😀

    TT

    from where I was I thought the landing was rather good, didn’t recall the wheels leaving the ground again. 😉

    Hmmm really!
    Interestingly you may or may not know that the two Mustangs and the Harvard are owned, were completley rebuilt and are operated by the same chap!

    Excellent pics as usual Mr W

    He also owns the wonderful Stearman which had an overhaul when it arrived at Hardwick but has yet to be fully rebuilt.

    Just thinking, If it is indeed AE977 could it be their as a swap for the Spitfire Mk.1?

    Both are already owned by by the same people

    Which Yak belonged to Rob? I’m afraid I’m a little behind on his activities.

    The Yak 11 G-YCII, he’s owned it for 12 years or so.

    Yak 11 – converted to Yak 3 with OFMC example??

    TFC had G-KYAK as an airworthy Yak 11 in the mid 90’s which is now with Max Alpha Aviation in Germany.
    The Yak 11 (G-BTHD) converted into a Yak 3 (now in California) was an Egyptian project imported from France
