We had Viscounts and Vanguards and Dart hearald's and HS147's and Argosys and Bristol Frigthers (in you've flown in one you'll know) a couple of Pionairs and some Dackotas. Herons a Dragon Rapide. All paddelers you notice.

    That was proper money! :n00b: Twelve pennies to a shilling. 20 shillings or 240 pennies to a pound. Half Crowns sixpence, thrupenny bits. Ten bob notes. To explain simply, 6 old pennies would be the equivalent of two and a half new pennies. I dunno education nowadays these young whippersnappers don't know nuffin!

    The state of preservation looks excellent. Can you jack the front and wrap everything in rags soacked in penatrating oil mix? The rest of looks so good it might just come free.My particular favourite snake oil is old gear oil, mixed with a bit of disiel, if you can pour on the joints warmed even better. That hitch definitley has a military look to it. Also is that front lamp an Acyetaline one?

    Looks very stubstanial cross piece. Might it be an anchorage for snatch blocks to portee a gun?
