Can someone ID this airplane?
http://www.abpic.co.uk/photo/1093439/ 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, Wil |

Thanks, WIl |

Thanks, WIl 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. Charles |

Charles- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - 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 |

The gyro pictured is definitely *not* a Sparrowhawk gyroplane! If
there's a fixed-wing Sparrowhawk, I'd like to know about it and see what it looks like. That plane behind the Bensen gyro really looks kinda nice.
