Where it all began

It all started in the summer of 1999 I started of with the Trainer and built my first Plane from Kit called the Bandit.
Which was my first low winger and I still have it now, it's got a OS70 four stroke and based on a real plane.

"I would like to say thanks"
To Greame, Eddie and Richard for all there help they gave me in the first two years of my flying.
Because of them I now have great fun going around the country as a Show line display pilot with other friends flying large scale warbirds
" Thanks again "
