Beech Restorations have been asked to attend with Beech 18 G-BKRN
we will tow the aircraft to the display area 1st thing.
further to this we will also bring along G-BKGL which we have been looking after for the last year or so
this in itself is nothing new…………what is more exiting is the recently repainted G-BKGM is hoped to join us.
Please take a look at our blog site for the importance of this

These 3 beech 18’s flew into the UK in 1983.
GL went to Duxford, RN went tot the Scottish Aircraft collection TRust at Scone and through several owners to us at Bruntingthorpe, GM was owned by Anthony Hutton at North Weald and then went to Andy Foan at Dunkeswell
it has been almost exactly 30 years since these 3 aircraft were together in one place.
It would be nice if all 3 were flying but hey that is for another time
here is a flickr picture of GM as she is now http://www.flickr.com/photos/62441905@N03/9453385610/in/photostream/
she looks stunning – well done to the chaps who did that job

How pleasing that they are all still around, and in better shape than even, especially as one had sunk so low back in the 90’s. A great effort.

Wonder if a photograph exists of the three parked up together at Prestwick? Would make a good “then and now” photo.

Great to see them back together. Wasn’t there in body, but there in spirit. Well done to all those who made it happen. More ‘3 sums’ please.
