Gerard Lohan

Following an LRS talk 2 years ago (click) by Bob Thompson of the APSS (Aircraft Preservation Society Scotland), Gerard Lohan gave us an update on their “late production” Sopwith 1½ Strutter, named "Sophie". Over the last 20 years they have built to the original drawings an (almost) exact replica of Sopwith's WW1 bi-plane, The Strutter.  The team want it to fly; when?    Click for Report.
