Designed by Mike Whittaker and built at Bodmin, seen here on display (since around 2003) in the atrium of the Trago Mills store at Stover near Newton Abbot, Devon. This aeroplane made only one test flight on 1 July 1976 at RAF St Mawgan. No further flights were made due to a dispute between the designer and his sponsor, Mike Robertson, at the time the owner of Trago Mills.

Ex-F-BKFA, French AF 196. Displayed on the site of a new "Trago Mills" out-of town shopping centre by entrepreneur Charles Robertson and used as a part of his "anti-crat" campaign, directed at the local planning authority. The sign declares "Messerschmitt-Nord 108, Civilian Development of the Famous German Fighter Messerschmitt 109". Nonsense, of course. Registration cancelled on 24 March 1976 on sale to the USA. (Note that I recorded the c/n as 283 in my log book at the time, but I can't remember where I found that number.)
