As a previous share owner of 'mike bravo' and in fact the person who started the group in September 1990 but unfortunately left in 1997, I can certainly voucher for that aircraft as it a low houred one that has always been privately owned. The same group is still operating it after 20 years which must show a lot of consistancy and care of a good aircraft. The DR400/180 is a great touring aircraft and is docile and safe. It will carry far more weight and is faster than other 180hp aircraft. To have a share in an aircraft at somewhere like Thurrock is a real priviledge as you have NO air traffic control and NO landing fees. I now operate an Vans RV6 at Biggin and have to pay £20 for every landing and have to queue up to take off and often hold to land !!!!!!!!!!
