Buchon - second flight
Richard Grace took Hispano HA-1112-M4L “Buchon” G-AWHC up for it’s first post restoration flight on 24th November 2017 at Sywell Aerodrome. The aircraft is the sole remaining two seater produced by Hispano in 1954 and has been restored to flight over the past 18 months by Air Leasing. It is one of the type acquired for use in the Battle of Britain film (1969), some of which was filmed at Sywell. Quite fitting then that it should return to the skies at the same airfield almost 50 years later.
