I see an advert in Aeroplane, with PPS seemingly disposing of their archives, spares, movie props et al .
I had heard rumours that Tony Bianchi was going to call it a day, and maybe this is now underway.
With the two seat Spit finally finished in the summer, perhaps this represents the completion of the last major project.
I shame if this is the case, as in the glory years there was a huge volume of fascinating aeroplanes passing through Booker, not to mention Aces High, Magnificent Men, and the other movie stuff.

I last visited in 1998. Phoned before I arrived and was allowed access to the Tempest, very friendly people. Seen the WW1 replicas at Stow Maries, namely Morane Type N, Bleriot and Fokker EIII.

The Pilatus film prop long term resident outside PPS is now gone.
