From a very early airshow?

As things are a bit quiet on the airshow front I thought that this might be of interest. It’s a scan from a slide taken about 10 years ago (not 100!)
Deperdussin flown by Andy Sephton at Old Warden. A few cars and spectators have been surgically removed.

Robbo – have you nothing better to do than trawl through my old posts?

Very nice pix. Thanks.
With the price of airline tickets going nuts, maybe we should reinvent the PFC (Personal Flying Contraption) 🙂

An even older shot from Old Warden. The Blackburn Monoplane back in 83/84.

I cannot remember what the machine is but it proves that flying tadpoles are nothing new. All that has changed is the construction methods and materials and the use of reliable engines.
