Does what it says on the tin

One of the best 'fretwork fighters' you will find. Great performance on its simple engine,and repairable.
Make no mistake this is a 'proper' aircraft that will give a huge amount of fun and
displays excellent handling qualities. Best kept under cover for low maintenance, but its low height and compact size does make it a candidate for a homemade shelter.
One of the best flights i had in a 90 hp version was flying out of an altiport in France and then landing on a glacier at 9000 ft. These machines were the backbone of the French flying club scene that had to operate from simple grass fields and were also built by the clubs from kits.
Due to the French 1000 hour engine regulation scores of these wonderful craft migrated to the UK and flew under the PFA regime, and were a welcome addition to the fleet.Still probably the best all round machine on 65hp they are gems. PP
