I’m pretty sure that, over the years, I have posted about the Dragon Rapide. It was the first plane I ever flew in, and I have seen a few over the years. When I went to Shuttleworth’s show recently, there was a Rapide undertaking pleasure flights. I suspect I might add more pictures of it to this blog before too long, but I am going to start with some images of it landing. There was quite a strong crosswind when I arrived at the airfield and the pilot was quite busy bringing the plane in. A nice bit of wing down technique and she kept this old taildragger under control. A little later the wind was really making things interesting, and it was the other wheel that was brought down first!
