Associated to the Wiltshire School of Flying, Jackaroo aircraft were founded at Thruxton in 1957 to convert surplus Tiger Moths into 4 seat Thruxton Jackaroo cabin biplanes. The company, which became Paragon Aircraft in the early 1960s, also designed the ES3 Paladin in two versions, the ES3 145 two seater and the ES3 175 four seater. None were built but this mock up was produced.
