Depends what you call a ''classic flying machine''?
Mine flys fine from grass with a P-60, winds up to 'scary speed' at full throttle &
is reasonably easy to take off & land.
But a 'classic'? Just because it has those three magic letters in the name (BVM)
doesn't make it a 'classic' in my eyes, just a nice jet. - John.
Being from the early days of jet fighters makes it a "Classic" IMHO.
