Oh yes , while I'm on the subject

Keith Paine's Miles Sparrowhawk is almost ready for delivery as well

Here are some shots courtesy of T6Flyer and PeterW of the father of the Speed Six and the Sparrowjet.

G-AELT will be the colours that come with the aircraft

But Peter Watkins will issue a paint set at the same time

The Model comes with the 60 gall aux tank that was fitted for the London to Cape Town race and I found

out pretty smartish that it can be a bugger to trim with full fuel!!! but take the aux fuel out and it becomes

a delight to fly.

Keith has again delivered another Miles product for you all...now he has disappeared back to his French

"skunk works" to continue on a real surprise for folks in the near future. ;-)
