I don’t imagine Carluke gets a lot of tourism.

Was a pity the B&B idea never took off, but that’s a good use of what could otherwise be a loss.

Great story, check the links for the planes and the types history.

To a Yank, the article headline is a bit confusing. “Pot Plants” has a completely different meaning on this side of The Pond.

I will go over to Carluke some day for a gander, as Gnat XM697 can also be found at the same nursery. It is a shame that G-CONV lost its props at some point, but it looks very smart regardless and I wish the owner well with their new venture.
