    Hello Dennis and welcome! Can’t find any more photos, but G-AHLK is alive and probably on a farm in the Midlands (U.K.). 🙂

    Probably not what you are looking for, but here is a photo of PH-NGK/R-18.

    Hopefully not scrapped! It was still there on 10th November, 2004 and is registered N1430Z. The other one in the States is with the Yankee Air Museum and is registered N896U. 🙂

    Here’s a flight deck photo from G-APVH. I love the expressions on their faces, particularly the first officer’s!

    Surely fitting for a caption competition? 😀

    Did you f**t ?:p

    Photos of G-AOZZ can be seen on the yankee air museum website http://www.yankeeairmuseum.org On the homepage find “yankee members photo gallery” located about halfway down, then scroll down to “static display aircraft”.

    As I said, it was on Google Earth recently!

    It is. Amazing how many of these old hacks are still flying 50 years on.

    Some of the G-ANZZ plates state that is the “Archbishop Tiger Moth”. Was the owner a man of the cloth?

    As previously mentioned, there were four Tigers and the only C.F.I. at The Tiger Club at Redhill was C.A. Nepean ‘Bish’ Bishop, so presumably the naming of the aircraft were routine (?) (Unless you know better! 😀 )

    Huge use many thanks. It’s amazing there’s so much to learn about a little aeroplane.

    The great thing about even the smallest aeroplane, is that each one takes up such a big part of so many people’s lives – they all have a story to tell!

    And not wishing to divert from the thread, it was great to see CZP before it became extinct 🙁

    wow, fabulous – any idea of an identity?

    Well, you have a choice of 100, the number that were supplied to Argentina. Some remaining are C-029, I-090 and C-025. From the photo, the collection of aircraft could be part of a technical school? :confused:

    It’s paypal that makes two small deposits in your account, not the other way round.

    You then need to enter those amounts into the verification process on “your account” to prove it’s your bank account.

    I agree with you there, hope N808NW is on the same page as well! (Why do you think he thinks he is an Airbus 330-323? 😀 )

    Not sure about the cancellation process you have caused unless Paypal paid you without verification and then took the money back.

    The ‘Answers’ page in the Community section on e-bay are very useful for all problems.
