Jon H Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) Aylesbury so im right in the middle Incidentally, theres a full size show at old warden on the 4th sept and the full size stampe team are going to be there. Last time they flew 'my' stampe G-HJSS was part of their 4 ship and that was pretty cool.

bert baker Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Popham is about 100 miles from me I have requested a flight schedule for this years show to see what goes on there Alan Page, William and myself could quite well be up for a visit to it next year So the question would be Who fancies Popham next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cymaz Posted August 20, 2022 Author Share Posted August 20, 2022 Popham is a possibility as her Ladyship would like to visit the Victory at Portsmouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Somerville Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 More gorgeous late summer weather. If I see a light wind day I always choose my Stampe for an outing, especially early in the day before the thermic breezes rock in. Thanks to Chris Montagu, our club. Chairman, for this lovely photo taken on just such a morning last Saturday. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert baker Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Looking great, And you have the rear undercarriage stay fitted Did notice the pilot was a bit camera shy If we waited for Light winds my Stampe would never come Out to play 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soldered a tag to the wheel wire and ran an elastic band up to the rudder. Works great and should have sorted it earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
