OK ! Brit homebuild, plans still available, low wing mono, single seat, fixed taildragger ! PC60 (biggest clue ever ?)
Oh, and this one built in 1996 !
Earliest flight of this model I can find is in 1967 !

Keith.

Yeah,yeah, having airtested three of them in 1973-5,had aileron flutter, a split fuel tank,and something else(GBABE),you would think I might know; however I was sidetracked by that `boost gauge`,and 6G, in to thinking it was `sumpin else` !
Taylor Titch,nice aircraft to fly,bit outclassed in F1 air-racing.
Privilege goes to R-R methinks ...

Yes ! Yes ! Yes ! For sheer determination sycamore should have the laurels, although RR slipped a large dollop of help in there ? Will leave it to you guys to decide who goes next ????
