No, not the gyro in front of it, the plane behind the gyro with the
twin boon. *Three brownie point to the first enthusiast able to ID
this plane.
Thanks,

Mighty close Carles, but I think it is not the Sadler Vampire.

There's a couple of people saying it is the Sparrow Hawk, but I
haven't gotten a confirmation yet.


Thanks,

I think Phillippe and Anyolmouse are the definite winners. * I dug up an
image using the wayback machine and it is a pretty definite match for
the Sparrow Hawk. *Looks real close to the Sadler machine, particularily
the military version, but the Sparrow Hawk is a dead ringer. *I heard
Sadler was bringing the Vampire back under LSA rules. *It looks like a
neat ship.

Hi again Charles,

Sorry I mistyped your name that time. Yes it does look like a nice
ship, that's what caught my attention. I still can't find any picture
of the Sparrow Hawk. Where did you find the picture at?

Thanks again,
Wil
