Over the years, VMAR has learnt that a decent model of any RAF trainer will get a good reception. And with the Bulldog, we think that this trend will continue. For those with an urge to beat a different path, the Swedish liveried version offers an interesting alternative.
The Bulldog is a 2 or 3-seat side-by-side training aircraft designed by Beagle Aircraft and after the demise of the company was built by Scottish Aviation.
The prototype Bulldog first flew on 19 May 1969 at Shoreham Airport. The first order for the type was for 78 from the Swedish Air Board. Before any other aircraft were built the company failed and the order was taken over by Scottish Aviation (Bulldog) Ltd. All future aircraft were built by Scottish Aviation at Prestwick Airport.
