OMG, a variant of the Dove. I flew several from 1970-71/72 in the US and the Caribbean. What version of the RR Gipsy Queen engine did the military version have? Have many remembrances of the Dove. with leaking pneumatics (brakes, flaps, master valves, and snapped quill shafts to the air pumps). Not even mentioning the oil that drooled from the engines at times. . Still a fun airplane to fly. Thank you so much for the moments.
