Hi everyone,
Could anyone help me with a guidance of where possiblyto find DH60 Gipsy Moth's construction plan or something similar? Maybe some museum?
The reason is that after long-time search I found out Gipsy Moth, an airplane designed and built almost 80 years ago, fits my mission profile perfectly: 1. aerobatic capable withTWO people up, 2. easy folding wings. I know that the German-made FK12 Comet fits the requirement too, but it isplainly toooo expensive. When you put aerobatic, two-people weight and folding/removablewings together, there are not manyairplanes out there.
So I decide to bite the bullet to make a replica or something knock-off of the Gipsy Moth. If the folding wing setup can be applied to Skybolt or Acrosport, it'd be even better.
Any lead?
Thank you.
