Chippy has a many chapter story that spans the globe, from the UK, to Tasmania, to Australia and the US. Jan shapes the story around the cloverleaf – an aerobatic figure involving a half loop with a graceful 90 degree roll to change directions. One of my favorite figures to fly in Chippy! Fly four of them and you complete a 4-leaf clover, representing the four major cycles in Chippy’s hard-working life.

I’m blessed to be the current pilot and caretaker of this gem! Many thanks to Jan and to the skilled and artful aviation photographers who are credited in this story.
