I have been given a Gardan Minicab. At the moment it's assorted parts in the garage. The build quality is very good, but I have no paperwork yet. Wish you all the best, remember it is always worth the effort. Cris R

Thanks for the encouragement - I've not done much on it in a while - where are you based? Would love to see your project!

I’m looking at building a Minicab so it’s exciting to discover your channel! Where can I find more videos about G-AWWM?

Hi, thanks for the note, no more videos posted yet - life has stalled progress somewhat and a few difficult technical repair pieces. Very happy to chat and share pictures / info if that would help. G-AWWM has not flown for nearly 30 years (last flight in the logs was 1995) so no footage available from then... I have built up a whole directory of info on minicab in general from old magazine articles to old plans, etc.

Really good intruduction. A fascinating tour around instruments on the dashboard. I'm looking forward to seeing how your project grows and unfolds

I collected the plane from Liverpool. It's now in Suffolk with me. As far as I can make out the project was started in 1970/71 by two gentlemen, sadly one has passed away. It was offered up in the LAA magazine so we made enquiries and got hold of it. Unfortunately the plans have been lent to some one and misplaced. No other documents exist so I'm not sure how I'm going to register it or finish it. We are building some Flitzer biplane so they are on hold until we get organised. The family of the deceased are keen to see something done with it. So here goes I made them a promise to do what ever I could. I will keep you in the loop. Kind regards Cris Richards

Great introduction to what seems quite a bigger project than I first thought it would be. Seems to be a few technical issues with the recording but the voice-over was great and clear. Thank you will be following with interest.

Thanks for the encouraging comments - yes rather a daunting project - hopefully taking others on the journey with me like this will keep me motivated to get her in the air again :-) Yeah, I had some frame drops while recording that I didn't spot until I published - I know what has caused it and how to fix, but wanted to keep the momentum going so published anyway. It will be fixed in the next one.

Do you have a email address? I just bought a minicab I’m putting back together. Has all the plans with it.
