Rollason D62B Condor
posted in: Visitors
This lovely D62 came to visit us to take in our sunny warm weather.
The Condor was developed by Norman Jones of Rollason Aircraft & Engines from an earlier French design. Proud of his independence and lack of government funding (and in no way taking a swipe at the French), Norman Jones painted onto one of his early Condors “This aircraft is British Made – Private Enterprise and No Taxpayers Money”.

Juliet Tango to her friends. Unashamedly this is (was) one of our Welshpool based aircraft. Syndicate owned, this genteel lady is (was) much loved by those who fly her.
