Over the last year I have bought some slides, via e-bay, photographers unknown. I am posting a few with the hope of obtaining a little more information regarding dates, id’s or locations, any help would be appreciated,
Year?
Correct serial?
Location?
Thanks in advance, Len Harvey.

Thanks, Consul. Re the Sea Hawk marked 485, thanks to viewing Janie’s thread 1980s Southend, I am assuming the the correct serial is XE489. A follow on question is re the location is it Southend or Bournemouth?

The black Sea Hawk is in the colours it wore when with Airwork for fleet requirements flying at Hurn. The background looks like Hurn at that time. The Sea Hawk later adopted SAH codes at Culdrose and is now at Duxford. It arrived at Duxford still with SAH marks but now carries period marks. So your picture is pre SAH.
