History
This Flying Twenty was designed and built by Uffa Fox in 1947. PEGASUS has the sail number 1 and is presumably the first production model after PENSIVE TEMPTRESS (see NSBR R 77). She was purchased by a Dutchman about 1999, taken to Holland and re-sold to a German. At some stage she was badly damaged but was brought back to U K in 2006 and restored. October 2008
