Anyone know anything about this aircraft?
Was into Cumbernauld today dropping off a pax and noticed this being wheeled out of a hanger just off the Apha turnoff? Didnt get a right look as I was in a rush but am 99% sure it was a Bede BD-5 in yellow.
I thought these were banned from flying in the UK ?? Would love to get my hands on one if it was up for grabs? Have heard rumours there are one or two flying on the S. Irish reg now so perhaps that might explain it?
On another note, was in past Oban yesterday (not been for a while) and even given all the troubles was still given an extremely warm welcome by the very helpful and friendly staff. Tis indeed a cracking terminal building they have and the runway is like a bowling green, slight overkill given the lack of activity however!
