I learnt to fly at the Blackbushe Aero Club with Andy Aldridge and Trevor Jones. We had two Condors. I was particularly impressed with the high tech fuel gauge.

I learnt (PPL) in Condors at Rochester Airport (Kent) during the 60's. Nice comfortable aircraft with no nasty flight characteristics that I found. Sadly expanding family put an end to my flying soon after qualifying!

To Andy Chadwick. Hello Andy, I was well acquainted with your Condor back in the 1970s when it was with the Stapleford Flying Club in Essex. My first flight was on the 23/9/70, just after passing my GFT. The last flight was a return trip from an Airshow at Old Warden on 27/5/74. I still have a photograph of it parked with the other visitors. Glad to know it is still going strong. Best regards, Ron Clark

Plans not available as Condors were all factory built. They regularly come up for sale here in UK.

I have owned G-AYFC since 2001, the aircraft is modified and has the same agile handling characteristics of the breed. Though it doesn't have the range of a Jodel (condors were designed for the circuit) it will cruise at 90kts and fly for a safe 3hrs. Which makes it a reasonable tourer for those with a normal bladder! FC displays in Europe and the UK.

Learned to fly in it at Fair oaks airodrome in the UK, 1972. Really a nice airplane for training. Very forgiving - and I needed forgiving! Very stable upright spinner. Brit pilots had to learn to spin and unspin in those days.
