Anyone have a pix of the gate guard at Moi. The Percival Provost s/n:969 ex:XF887

Chris, there’s a poor photo of the Provost here, posing as a Beverly (sic).

One can assume she’s still there. I saw her on the gate back in 1993.

I had grand ideas of getting a look round, and indeed a jeep came to pick me up, but there was only one officer on duty, all the rest were away on a field day! All I remember seeing were a couple of Buffaloes (aircraft type).

Wilson Airport was full of interesting GA stuff, I wandered round one of the older hangars together with a chap from the South African CAA. A Kenyan-registered C-46 was parked out and obviously airworthy, and I took a look inside the Kenya CAA’s calibration F-27.

All too long ago!
