Hellcat,

I'm sorry to hear about your father.

If I had the money I wouldn't think twice about making you an offer. There used to be a formation team in my area that used Globe Swifts and they were called the "Swift Birds." The Swift is a classy little airplane and I'm curious about the RAF paint scheme that you mentioned. Do you happen to have any pictures?

And what's your asking price?

Cheers,

David
