Visitor from a bygone age

Grateful thanks go to Tim Spearman who has supplied this shot taken by A.J.Fricker of Miles Falcon SE-AFN taken some time between 1936 and 1950 at the old site, identifiable by the ‘Gatwick Airport’ station sign in the background. This aircraft was sold in Sweden off the Woodley production line in 1936, but returned to the UK in 1962 as G-AEEG for Personal Plane Services and, after passing through the hands of several owners including Shipping & Airlines at Biggin Hill it now flies regularly at its base at Old Warden under the ownership of Peter Holloway.
