Here’s a photo of my good side (the back).
:p
As an alternative, if you want to keep your magazines, I will happily store them for you in my office at home for a few years. (on the condition I can read and scan them while they are here)

Hello Adrian,
I am looking for some old magazines to help my research into Percival aircraft, but I am expecting that you’ll want a fair sum for that lot! What price are we talking for these?
Thanks,
Jon.
A couple of pictures of the Sealand at Belgrade can be found here:
A lovely little machine!
Jon.
Hi Joe,
Do you have a better resolution picture of Tollereton, I’m trying to read the registration on the second Proctor but can’t quite see it.
Also, do you know if that’s a Percival Prince tucked away behind the York?
Cheers,
Jon.
Thanks for all the help so far, its been a huge help to my research. Keep the information coming!! Any Percivals still surviving, anything from a complete wreck to an airworthy example, I want to know about it!
Thanks guys,
Jon
ps – any photos appreciated
According to my records, G-AHMW (former military P6305) K.314 went to Belgian Congo as OO-CCZ in July 1946.
Also in July 1946 G-AHVH went to Iceland as TF-TUK.
Can anyone confirm if Galdri’s records are correct or mine?
:confused:
Galdri,
You say Percival Proctor K.242 was a Mk.II and was registered G-AHVH then TF-VIB.
My records show G-AHVH is a Mk.1 and was registered in Iceland as TF-TUK. Do you know if this is correct and then became TF-VIB ?
Regards,
Jon.
Nice picture, shame about the Porsche 928s in the foreground !!:)
Proctor III and Vega Gull. Proctor IV and V is a slightly larger aircraft with a distinctly different fromt windshield.
Having problems uploading pictures, I’ll try again.
I think this is the Provost you mean. More pictures would be great, and if possible a registration and construction number.
Ae.57 will be the construction number for the aircraft. All Proctor V’s have an Ae construction number (apart from the first few which were As)
The English registration was G-AHGS. Do you know how much of it is remaining? What condition it is in, where it is kept, is it to be restored, a photo of it?
Thanks,
Jon.
Fantastic,
Thanks for those pictures Mark, I didn’t even know this aircraft existed. I don’t suppose you know the reg?
Jon.
Thanks Mark,
Dont worry about the N.Z provost, I am in contact with the owner of that one already, its getting close to being airborne!
Jon.
