Edgley EA-7 Optica Srs 301 G-BOPO

Farnborough Airport (FAB) 16-Jul-2016

 

The Optica first flew in 1979 with the unusual ducted fan pusher propellor. It has excellent low speed characteristics and superb all round visibility making it a cheaper alternative to helicopters for surveillance operations such as Police work. It is hoped that these may soon re-enter production
