Hi,
Haven't heard but it sounds like a tail dragger. I know there is a tigermoth or 2 up that way, but, with the age of the pilot i would have to lean toward an RAA registered plane as the tiger is a bit heavy (unless this pilot is a very fit for his age).
Chould be in the incident report in the safety mag soon enough.
Kind Regards
Ben

The Southport Flying Club who operate the strip are kinda secretive when it comes to any accident or incident there.
They are acutely sensitive with housing development creeping ever and ever closer towards the strip, and any adverse publicity might get the residents calling for its closure.
