Watched this evening what looked like a high winged taildragger, high and to the east of the pier at Brighton at around about 1825ish.

Looked pretty good, lots of slow rolls and loops, stalls etc, made a walk along the front pretty interesting this evening.

Cheers whoever you are.......... :ok:

Someone else was having aerobatic fun...just not in Brighton!

Could have been Goodwoods Super Decthalon?

BRL 'twas maybe my 8 year old having the time of his life on his 8th birthday. Highwing, location and time seem to fit.

More expense - got him hooked too now :ok: :uhoh:

Nah, it was just him with an instructor. I'm still grounded (an ear problem) at the moment. Will be in touch when I am airbourne again :sad:

Someone was also having fun on Sat pm over South Dorset (around 6nm E of Dorchester) - never caught sight of him, but sounded kind of Yakkish.

I was busily working in the workshop, constructing / modifying a self assembly TV cabinet that may well keep my 1 yo son from the video / satellite / DVD (and the birds nest of SCART / aerial / mains leads at the back!!).

Sounded like he was having fun, with the engine note changes suggesting he was undertaking loops, rolls and some flick manoeuvres.

As I say, I never saw / met the guy (or guyess :D), but I already hate him / her for having a fun time while I was working under orders from the domestic CO!! :D;)
