Drift - that stirred a memory that 40 years ago, someone was building a replica of the Port Victoria Grain Kitten as G-PVAM - it's now listed as cancelled by the CAA, assume the build was abandoned, anyone know more?

Bless you!

India Four Two; that's not a nice thing to say about BN's best. I've got a few hundred hours on the Trislander, and it only really had one fault. The heaters in the long-nose version often failed, and we were operating to the Shetlands in winter!
Sorry Herod. I was slightly tongue in cheek. I’ve always liked the Islander but have never flown in one.
However the first time I saw an Aurigny Tri Islander at Guernsey, my initial reaction was that it looked as if it should tip on its tail!
