VP 1

 

Owned And operated by Emily Hooper

 

The VP1 is a 60% scale model of a well known homebuilt aircraft and is very stable in flight. It is equipped with a 3w 140cc motor and weighs 23 kg, so it is operated under the Over 20  kg Scheme and holds a CAA Exemption for public flying. Although it is not equipped with flaps the constant chord wing and the "all flying"  tailplane  gives excellent stability on the approach at very low speeds. The aircraft has been operating successfully for over 8 years.
