    The huts at London Gliding Club where ex WW1. The Beecroft estate at Dunstable was started with POW labour just after WW2. A farmer at Slapton, Bucks had Luftwaffe labours working for him. In Heminingford Abbotts, Cambs a barn was thatched by German POWs. Just out of Woburn there was a WW1 German POW camp.

    Its the one left over from the two wrecks that went into build BGA310. Mike Maufe and his son Tony got BGA 310 and BGA 327. The fuselage is in to parts, already to put together. The tailplane and elevator came of BGA310, it has the rounded trailing edge. Both BGA310 and BGA 327 where built in 1937.
