I recieved image above today from E Bay. I have had a look around the net but can not ID the model. The two bade props and items below the engines ( cooling ? but they are radials ) must give some one more knowlegeable an idea. Looks like an airshow from the crowd barriers but no features to ID the location. Thanks in advance. Ben

Just found this old thread. I think this is CASA 352L T.2B-272 delivered in to Biggin Hill just prior to the 1978 Air Fair. I photographed it on 20 May 1978 and will attempt to attach a shot of it – it may help you to confirm the ID of your picture. The RAF Museum also exhibited their Bf109E at the show.

Thank you Consul. I will look forward to confirmation and maybe some pics. Is there any thing in particular that makes it stand out as this aircraft.

I think you may find its the CASA C.352L that’s now at Cosford. It was delivered in to Biggin Hill by Don Bullock immediately prior to an Air Fair. I was there covering the event for a journal when it was ferried in escorted by a BBMF Spit for a circuit before landing. It was ferried without SpAF markings but still in overall silver and carrying serial T2B-272. I can’t access my files at present but it was around 1982 I think and no that one wasn’t ever DA/WoGB owned.

Thank you. Maybe a Doug Arnold aircraft then ? I have sent a message to the seller to ask where the picture comes from. Maybe this will help.

Whilst I can’t give you an identity this is a CASA built aeroplane and probably ex Spanish Airforce. It has ENMASA Beta engines and items below are oil coolers.
Cheers
John
