Here's a little beauty - the ex-Rodney King tourer - the one that had an argument with a fire engine in Bristol back in the sixties. Now for sale my the mad flying vet Maurice Kirk over on Alderney. At one point he converted it to propane propulsion, and still may be, for all I know. But the engine is evidently in pieces at present.

Ready for this? Are you sitting down? The asking price is twenty thousand pounds!

And I love the lighting arrangement!

No joke. I have met this man - he is seriously certifiable. He used to fly his ASuster with NO fabric on the fuselage, got done many times by the CAA for this and other amazing stunts. He is notorious in the general aviation world.

There is a cheaper alternative see item No 250455927850 on ebay. Would suit Paul as a stable companion to his saloon. What do you think Paul :roll: Need I ask. Mike

Mike, Well, it would certainly give Minor a run for its money !!
Do you know, I rather like it ! I now fully expect to be kicked off the forum.

Paul.
