Pilot Magazine July 2024

The July 2024 issue of Pilot features a flying classroom - a retired airliner finding new life as a teaching tool for the next generation of aircraft designers and aerodynamicists - as its cover star.

The edition also includes a Where to Fly Guide, a complete listing of clubs and schools in the UK and overseas where you can find the ideal place to train, add a rating or hire an aircraft.

In Pilot Flight Test, Belgian company Ultralight Concept has put the fabled Stampe SV4-RS biplane trainer back into series production as a 600kg microlight that might one day be cleared for aerobatics, while Pilot Profile turns the spotlight on Andy Phillips and Andair when we talk to the inventor and manufacturer of the distinctive, brilliantly engineered fuel valve now found in so many homebuilts, ultralights and certified aircraft.
