OK. The plane has UK registration and looks like a modified "Kitfox" kitplane. What is it?

I'm impressed. It's definitely not a home-built Sopwith Camel.

Check here. Then search for "Easy Raider."

Prologue:

Charlie Brown walks out carrying Snoopy’s dinner.

‘Dinner? Now?! I have to fly my Sopwith Camel! This is war!’ cried the dog.

He jumped up on his Sopwith Camel, where his doghouse previously stood.

‘Why can’t I have a normal dog like everyone else?’ Charlie Brown asked himself.

About an hour later, a smoking Sopwith Camel flew into the aerodrome.

As the fighter pilot-dog climbed out, the mechanic shouted: ‘What on earth did you do to it?’

But Colonel Mustard intervened.

“Very well done,” said Colonel Mustard to the fighter pilot-dog. ‘But I am a little disappointed.”

“Why?” asked Snoopy.

“This is the third Sopwith Camel you’ve lost in the war.”

“I qualify as a flying ace. Don’t we lose a few planes?”

“But you’ve only been in two battles.”

The Vertical Stabilizer looked wrong for a Kitfox. Easy
Raider, at the other angles it appears to be a single seater. I reviewed 500 + kits before I built my Aventura II.

My next project will be all metal with folding wing. I am leaning hard toward a Zenith CH701 STOL. Ugly little plane but is ideal for short field low altitude flying, which is the way I like it.
