Spartan Executive over Edinburgh
Just had a Spartan 7W Executive (N17616) rumble over Edinburgh at about 10,000ft. Doesn't appear to be one of the UK-based examples and it appears to have been recently sold. Any know where it's off to, bit of a beggar to spot but looks like it was heading south.

Showing on ADSB out of Reykjavik.
FlightAware has it registered to a company in Germany as of Jan 2020, so one would assume a delivery flight?

Thanks Dan. Good to see another example in Europe, fingers crossed it makes an appearance at an airshow in the future.

That makes four in Europe now. Great to see another one heading over here.

This example is going to Latvia I am led to believe.
