Shurely a large proportion of the other 55% are black British, rather than foreigners?

That’s a shame. A genuine one-off.

Like with so many other things, I get sick of the way the Meeja go way over the top with this kind of thing. Nicholas Bloody Witchell in particular makes my skin crawl with that fawning, deferential whine of his.

Just Googled the reg (G-AVEG) and it’s a SIAI-Marchetti 205. I thought Grumman at first, but wasn’t sure. Great pictures. People sometimes seem a little embarrassed that old pictures are not up to current standards of photography, or that the subjects may seem mundane compared to all the glamorous fast jets and suchlike, but IMHO these sort of pictures are tremendously nostalgic and atmospheric of that era so many of us fondly remember. Please keep them coming.

Can you let us know how this panned out, please? Just curious.
