Definitely NOT disappearing
Thanks for some fresh air, thought this would go away.....As to the quote above, that may be in your eyes. The statement was based on prior observations and the fact that with only maybe 3 actual airframes left, they are a disappearing breed. Same as the P-51, Spitfire etc., where thousands were manufactured..
As to the Frelon and the Z-8 being the same aircraft? I would think there may be something that we would call an STC for the interchange of parts between the two. That would be of course with the approval of the CAA.......Im sorry, thats not necessary in the Cape....(albeit a pain in the ass anyway)
Fill in the blanks. Is that correct or not.......
