Interesting that it has the U.S. reg. on the tail and the French reg. under the wings! A very impressive airport website for Gloucestershire Airport.:)

They’re in the ‘September Gallery’ link at www.flygloster.co.uk about 3 or 4 pages in. Not sure how to link directly to them?

Lockheed 12A NC18130
This aircraft flew near my local `drome,Liverpool,en route to Fife(Glenrothes) on Monday 3rd Sept.
She has a very interesting history having been used as President de Gaulle`s personal transport in the 1940s.

No pictures? I couldn’t find any at either of the links.
Also, does anyone know if there are any flyable L-10’s in this country?
