Guess This Aircraft ?


Recommended Posts

Roundsounds plane is a GY-80 Gardan Horizon, as djpacro said.

I sat in the backseat on a number of flights in the Horizon when I was a young lad, the gear and flap were operated by a single handle. Gear and flap were wound either up or down, you could not separate their operation. If you ever see one departing you can tell when the pilot has started retracting the gear by the pitching/rolling induced by the pilot while he winds the gear/flap up.

You got the Luton Major!! The one in the foreground is a Stitts Payboy. I watched both of these aircraft during finally assembly at Camden when I was a young hangar rat. Managed to go for a ride in both, later in life I did a flight review for one of the Luton’s owners and had a fly of it - very Tiger Moth like to fly.
