In the vicinity of White Waltham last week.

High wing, single radial engine, fixed tailwheel undercarriage. Much smaller than a Beaver or Lysander, looked like a scaled up Piper Cub except for the radial engine. I'm quite embarrassed not to know what it was.

Sounds like it could be a PZL Wilga -

Think I've found it thanks, it looked like a Yak 12.
I think it was G-PFKD to be specific.

Definitely not one I'm familiar with.

I'd hazard a guess and say that the one in the BBC article is a) A Kitfox and b) Blue - not a) A Yak 12 and b) Yellow.
