Auster Agricola returns to Rearsby

The sole remaining complete and flyable Auster B8 Agricola G-CBOA today made an historic return to Rearsby today during a private Auster Club Fly-in to a special prepared strip adjacent to the factory that once housed the home of Auster and later Beagle production. Below a few pictures. More pictures to follow of aircraft attending on the FP Photographic/Airshow Forum thread.
