The name seems odd to me! Flabob.. but it apparently exists.

Reading through the history it sounds like there was a company who built replica aircraft such as WW1 stuff - at some time or other it looks like they did a DH88, it might be have been helpful if they told you that though! :tuttut:

Aye, it was indeed the base of Bill Turner's "Repeat Aircraft", who built the airworthy G-ACSS replica...
