Familiar Friends during Forties and Fifties

Here are a few very familiar aircraft taken I suspect between 1948 and 1952. Most seem to be at the same show. Any ideas as to where and exactly when?

1 Aeronca 100 G-AEVS
2 Mignet HM.14 Pou-du Ciel G-AEHM
3 Hawker Tomtit G-AFTA
4 Heath LNB-4 Parasol G-AFZE
5 Taylorcraft Plus D G-AHXE
6 Tipsy B G-AISC

Anyone know the whereabouts of the Heath Parasol G-AFZE?

I think they were taken at an event called “Fifty Years of Flying” which was held at Hendon in July 1951.

Here are another six taken in the same period and may also be at the same event.
