Photo Comment

A most unusual concept, this aircraft is built from spruce and composite materials and is designed to carry a small, two-seat Fiat car in the back for transport when visiting remote airfields.. It is cleverly designed so that the centre of gravity changes little with or without the car. It has performed several short hops but the designer is encountering problems in obtaining a Permit to fly largely due to the small amount of fuel in the tank of the car
