Illegal plane landing in council park

<< < (3/3)

Mudlark:
Now you gat that I decided to read up a bit on it and came across this:


--- Quote ---C-FPHZ is one of the rarest aircraft in the world. “T.J.” started life in 1937 as a De Havilland DH82A (British) Tiger Moth and served as an RAF trainer until the start of the Second World War. The airplane was reportedly in France at the start of hostilities and fled back to England just ahead of the advancing German forces - which makes this one of the very few flying aircraft still in existence that actually saw combat during WW2.

"TJ" was used as a training and liason aircraft throughout the Second World War, but after VE day, the plane ended up in storage. In 1958, a group of enthusiasts at Thruxton Aerodrome decided to convert some of the numerous war surplus Tiger Moths into four seat aircraft and the resulting aeroplane was named “The Thruxton Jackaroo.” Some 16 examples were built as well as a variant named the Rollason Jackaroo.

if the CAA get ahold of this, the pilot will most probably have his PPL revoked.

As far as i can gather from my long hours studying for my PPL, he should only land at designated airstrips. Fields etc for severe emergency use ONLY (engine failure etc)
