It's roomy, it's fully enclosed but you can remove the doors for summer, it's an economical cruiser and it's so easy to handle even in extreme turbulence and strong crosswinds. It's an absolute dream, and if it's good enough for the RAF to fly it on a expedition to Gibraltar....... well!
Come and fly it at Popham"
The aircraft was actually flown to Barcelona from Halton; there was never any intention of going on to Gibraltar as the flight was to celebrate the Olympics in Barcelona.
There were articles in Microlight Flying and (I think) 'Pilot' magazine about it.
