Hi, Chinooker. Yes, this is a very impressive aircraft. It flew past me at Oshkosh at a mere 105 knots!!!!!!!. This speed was broadcast by Frank Chapman, test pilot, not by the awful American commentator [who apparently has been awarded the 'Sword of Excellence' for Airshow Commentating' ]You don't have to do or know much to get an award over there!!!!
