Nice catch and record shot.

Anyone know if these have flown yet? Just had a Grob over Spalding, South Lincs and it sounded more meaty than the normal one
Came back a few mins later looked like a old one, pilot must have just been given it some

That's good news. I was worried they would end up at Wittering and have the problems spotting there

They look a bit reminiscent of the old Bulldog.
Look forward to catching a few of these Super Dogs when they start flying.

I thought that! Canopy is quite different, but the rest is very similar.Tiger 1 wrote:They look a bit reminiscent of the old Bulldog.

I trained on Pups from Sywell, which was basically an underpowered Bulldog.

Many Thanks Tom
With the depletion of all our types, I'm looking forward to seeing something relatively new...
