I am writing a book. In the early sixties the main character has the opportunity of flying a Maggie.

I'd like to hear from anyone who has experienced of flying one, to ensure that my narrative isn't total b******s.

Thanks in anticipation

Hi Oliveau,

Hairyplane is the best guy to ask as he is up to date and current, but I did learn to fly on them in the mid to late '50's.

In fact I went solo in G-AFBS which is at Duxford.

If I can help send me a PM. The memory is fading but moments of shear terror come back quickly.

Regards.
