Very nice! Like two Irish two-seater as well. Will it be at Leuchars for the Airshow?

Cheers, Berry

I believe the Mk18 Spit is going to make the trip up but the 2 seater will probably be earning money, she has seen alot of use training pilots since she took to the air again.

You might have to be quick Greg watching these new pilots bouncing down the runway in the old girl makes you wonder how long it will be before they take one bounce to many!  :shock:

Creates great amusement for us watching though. But not as much fun as the day last year when somebody chose to come to Duxford to do some training in a Piper Cub - Now that was funny! Made me realise how strong those cubs are though!

Whats the most times any of you Chipmunk drivers have managed to bounce on one landing then ??
