If you enquire at your local library I’m sure you can get to see them on the inter-library loans service – maybe only one volume (12months) at a time though.

If you were prepared to travel somewhere that has done aeronautical education for a long time (eg Cranfield University) probably have copies in their library and Shuttleworth probably have them in theirs.

PhantomPhixer,

wikipedia has a few under “gate guards” and there are some on here:

The demobbed site might be a place to try – I know there are a lot of types listed but you could discount things like Avro 504 and go through the obvious ones.

If there isn’t a Gate Guard Aircraft site perhaps someone ought to start one.

Rob, It’ll be the Series 3 Whirlwind – only a nose/cockpit section remains of the HAS7.

Last couple of times it has been repainted I think Bristows donated the paint.

She was out on static display in the “flight line” at the display on August 5th and I took several pics.

I have tried to post one but the file size is to big and haven’t had time to work out how to reduce :confused:

I know this threads concerns the aircraft’s interior – but no one has come up with a pic of the exterior.
