Unusual Attitude

taybird

It would seem that we are talking about the same person, and aircraft. Yes, on the wet legs Taybird. Still at his 'altitude' his legs are a long way from his face. Both moved away from said home airfield, not sure what he is up to now. Flew a few aero's with him, and many a training fire (and drink in the club bar). Oh the tales I could tell.

Unusual Attitude, I have seen the rebuilt machine, she does look great now. I do remember said pilot having to somehow move the rudder pedals to accomodate his 'lofty' height. How to get a 7 footer (almost) into a Cassut without his feet being in the prop disc. I take it you had to shorten it.

There was talk about rebuilding it as their own design. They were going to call it the 'Colin'. Pleased that you got a hold of it
