Hi David. The Emeraude is in fact F-BIMG (now G-ASCZ). The picture was almost certainly taken at Biggin Hill in 1959. But why is my father with it? He was definitely a pilot, possibly a club pilot for one of the southern clubs or schools, but other than that I don’t know very much. Frustrating really as someone somewhere must recognise him. The other planes are Chipmunk G-AOSN and Leopard Moth G-AIYS. Most likely both taken at Biggin Hill in or around 1959.
Kind regards, Paul Bennett-Todd.
