Those 90% aircraft are probably Mike O'Sullivan's machines. Mike is a CMP owner (drove from Istanbul to Normandy with us in his C15A).
The design is absolutely outstanding and has developed from a small homebuilt "toy" to something that is unrecognisable quite close up from a real aircraft. The handling and performance are outstanding and it will outclimb a real Spitfire. Mike has just shifted his whole operation to USA taking some of his key people from Australia and has resumed production. I hope the Oxford venture gets up. Lang
