Microplus sank without trace about 1980 it may have been earlier than that. They were made in what was The Gloucester Aircraft Companys factory (Home of Gloucester Gladiator and Gloucester Javelin) situated between Brockworth and Hucclecote just outside the city of Gloucester.

thanks david, i know they're not in manufacture anymore. i'm just interested in their history, and i wanted a decent photo or line drawing. i searched on the google monster, but only came up with one.

regards, steve.

Sorry to but in .... but I was wondering - are you a Microplus 461 owner too? - I'm just about to buy one in Dorset. Can you tell me how they handle and anything about your experiences with yours? also if there's anything I should look out for when purchasing mine - any weaknesses etc. that they seem to have?

May thanks in advance

cheers for that, but there's only one microplus there and its a 501 (or simmilar).

but good thought, may use that search engine again... turned up three more than google!

all i'm after is a line drawing as i wanted to design and build a pram hood.

cheers, steve.
