Arrived by road. The wings had just been attached and seemed light compared to what the fuselage frame looks like. All in all the original aircraft was light enough to fly on a 25-hp Anzani engine and this replica, built by Mr Jean-Louis Benoît from Avord with a 40-hp powerplant, is classed as a microlight with a French provincial registration, 18 being the Cher department. Note the unusual presentation as F-18RG with F prefix. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
