In 2000 a team of retired pensioners set about building Scotland’s only World War One aircraft, the Sopwith Strutter.

That airframe is now ready to fly and Ellie is in the prime position to test fly it. Find out why they built the aircraft, the challenges they faced and how the team now go about taking her to the air.

Please support the Kickstarter programme if you can, even a small donation will help.
