will these be acceptable?

Would’t mind betting the Fox Moths and Austers were taken at Abingdon Fayre last year?

Thanks for posting that Gooney. Auster threads seem to attract a lot of interest from forumites, including me. G-AJUE still survives, although I find I last saw it at Old Warden in 1978 painted yellow. G-ANHZ was sold to Switzerland in January 1995 and presume is still healthy, whilst G-AGXP was unfortunately destroyed in a fire at Ipswich in 1973. Sorry, can’t quite read the Proctor’s reg to identify it! :rolleyes:

I would Second that – John Dibbs. Charles E.Brown produced some superb atmospheric cloudscape shots, but not punchy ‘in your face’ air-to-airs.

This is surprising as Beagle didn’t start until 1959. It is actually a 1952 A61 Terrier available just over the Channel 🙂

This Beagle A-61 Terrier is offered for sale by

Frank Iglesias

This aircraft was initially built as Auster T.7 WE591 in 1952, but was converted to a Terrier as G-ASAK and flew as such on 4th June 1962. I’m very surprised it is up for sale already, as it was only sold to France as F-AZTJ on 24th March 2005, so has been over there for less than a year! Quite honestly, I didn’t know it had even gone out of the country, as it was quite a regular at UK Fly-Ins!

Since when has the crown started to charge for use of their images.

They always have and this includes official RAAF and RNZAF photographs, all covered by ‘Crown Copyright’. Suggest you read this:

Pimpernel’s opening sentence, quoted above, brought a twisted smile to my face. Why? Well that sentence applied to Key Publishing/Today’s Pilot who used my air/air photo of a Piper Cub without my permission and indeed claimed it was theirs! (Excuse me while I turn my head to oneside, spit and utter some justified profanities in their direction). 😡

If it wasn’t for someone mentioning they had seen one of my pictures in that magazine, I would never have known anything about it. A nasty letter stating the facts and demanding that the original photograph (pre digital era) be returned to me, eventually resulted in an apology. And guess what was written on the back of the returned photo? My name and address! :rolleyes:

Key do this all the time! I was once told that ‘they have to capitalise’ on their photo archives’….yeah, right, other peoples! Have you noticed how many ‘MoD Crown Copyright’ and ‘IWM Copyright’ photos get published and credited to ‘Key Collection’. The ‘capitalise’ bit comes in to play because these people haven’t got the staff to check on every photo in every mag, but wonder how much in ‘Crown Copyright fees’ they owe? Also how many peoples unreturned photos suddenly become ‘Key Collection’ property?

Neil,

I’m so pleased to read you are saving XM172 and as soon as you can reveal where ‘up north’ is, I’m sure we would love to know. If you need higher resolution photos of the pics I posted, please p.m. me?
