Default Gloster Javelin

I often fly my Friends Javelin for him and I must say that it is a totally enjoyable plane to fly. He has changed the tail incidence from the kit and moved the CG as standard it felt very heavy on the elevator when landing. Also we fitted a gyro on the nose wheel a while ago this makes a big difference to the ground handling.
All in all a really easy and pleasant plane to fly.
I say a Mick reeves hunter last Friday that I believe to be one of the first from the molds. Looks great. I did not ask him when it was out for sale. Sorry
