OK some big clues: I have a prop off an Avro Cadet – it could well have flown on an aircraft based at this place, which also has strong connections with the Airspeed Oxford and with jet engine development.

Caproni-Bergamaschi ca.135

Looks spot on to me – what a great piece of recognition – I had been foxed as the cockpit glazing was actually hidden by the prop.

The ‘Dayglo Thread’ has been dormant for five months, whilst the air show season has been on, so time to revive it with one of my favourites, but can anyone guess where this was taken?

Iceland :rolleyes:

Good point – I wonder if they would consider that if it’s the only way to enable wider appreciation of the type – I’ll lobby.

True – but the work and associated costs to achieve full certification has been the primary reason for operators not going that route with certain ex-military types. It’s wonderful that AA’s activities enable us to still witness (for example) an Annie in flight; but that’s not the same as experiencing a flight. Their intended initiative would have enabled that. I flew in an Oxford (albeit converted to Consul) many years ago and had looked forward to being able to compare that experience with the Anson – now it seems a forlorn hope. 🙁

Hello …… Others are marked Ransomes Ipswich , Can anyone shed any light on what aircraft these may be from ? ……

Ransomes, Sims & Jeffries of Orwell Works, Ipswich built 350+ FE2B/C/D/H and 250 AIRCO DH6. Factory was built by B&P who passed jigs & tools to RSJ for FE2. Ransomes Ltd still exist as a mfr. of agricultural machinery. Source = British Built A/C Vol 4 (ISBN 0 7524 3162 5). I’ve not attempted to verify these “facts”.
