Thanks Dan. It's the Tipsy Trainer. I posted a shot of it flying in one of my other Old Warden threads. Check them out. Wink

Hi Foz. Glad you finally noticed my shots. Wink

The Sopwith Triplane was fitted with a variety of engines.
Clerget 9Z, 9 cylinder, rotary, 110 hp [82 kw]
Clerget 9B, rotary, 130 hp [96 kw]
Le Rhône, 9 cylinder, 110 hp [82 kw]

I have to admit that I'm not certain which this example has.* ???

All the Shuttleworth aircraft in my photos are airworthy. The ones in this thread all took part in the flying display.

*PS. I just checked. It's the Clerget 9B.


Hi Doug...!

Clerget 9B, 16.29 litres, 130 HP, price to you sir, new in 1915, £907.50.... Grin...!
(Expensive, but well made and reliable at the time, for a rotary engine).... 8)...!

Cheers Doug.... Grin...!

Paul....(I love my radial/rotaries..)... Wink...!

Not offhand. I think I heard it mentioned that one is being restored in the UK. I'm not sure how badly the BAe Mossie was damaged.


From the pictures of the accident I'd be surprised if there was anything left...

Maggie looks a lot nicer with spats too... Its nice enough without though...

How would you like to be the guy who lives in that brown house?


At the May show in 1996 I suspect it wasn't pleasant when the Slingsby Firefly crashed in the copse to the left of the photo. I think the farm's part of the estate anyway...
