Country  England
City/Aerodrome  Gloucester EGBJ
Description  Show quality paint, 9.9/10 construction. Built as retirement project by ex-F1 GP engineer. Attention to detail throughout is incredible. Performance and handling astounding. Cruise at 180kts on 40 lph or economy < 30 lph@160kts.
Airplane time state  560hrs on FACTORY NEW engine (not an overhaul) with a Klaus Savier 66x75 wood/composite prop.

Exterior  Metallic silver grey
Avionics  IFR/NIGHT equipped with traditional 6 pack.
Options  Comes with all plans, drawings, templates, set of jacks (for retract tests) set of Cambrai covers and various consumables for routine maintenance.
Remarks  This is truly a one-off example of how all homebuilt/experimentals should be. All the aviation magazines that have written about it, have been stunned by the high standard of workmanship that Glenn Waters produced, and the handling and performance match the looks.

This aircraft has no phase of flight which requires excess skills to “tame it” (eg: Pitts etc) It’s easy to take off, land and handle - it just makes you look like someone with ACE skills :^).   As I also have a Cozy4 (side by side Canard) familiarisation flights for insurance ‘differences’ requirements is possible  (my premium is currently £761pa.). I have too many aircraft, so I have decided to advertise the best two, whichever sells first will determine what I keep (ie: when one sells, I’ll withdraw the other)
Price  € 185,000
