Great pics, funny to see how the guy gets in his Luton Minor (or whatever the plane is with the high wing and vw engine)

Yes, thanks John. You obviously caught my best side!

Getting into the Luton is a bit of an acquired art, only rivalled by trying to get into the front seat of a Pietenpol Aircamper.

This old cartoon (courtesy of Arthur Mason) shows the other alternative!

Mike, I think your photo must have been taken during his attempt to escape back to France wearing a fake RAF uniform, having been shot down during the Battle of Britain. Judging by johndm1957s photo he must have made it. I wonder what the Luftwaffe did with the Hurricane? Might be worth moving this to ‘Historic’, they might know 😀

I would personally love to see more of the same, namely general airfield action in OW photos, which includes people! For example, to see Dodge or Airbedane looking over the aircraft would add atmosphere to a collection of shots..
