  4. 7A - would the jet be for self launching without the need for a towplane. Would the glider be a Sparrow Hawk?

    8A - Thinking it has folding wings and may be a microlight ultralight floatplane.

  8. #18, UH1 H if it was an Airforce machine. 205 is a civie designator. 212's have an asymmetric blade profile.
