de Havilland D.H.89 Dragon Rapide G-ACZE /Preservation Profile/
GORDON BAIN'S photograph features Brian Woodford's immaculate D.H.89A Dragon Rapide G-ACZE over Sussex in August this year, flown by Peter Harrison.
In 1947 G-ACZE was rebuilt by the de Havilland Repair Unit at Witney and emerged as G-AJGS. The photograph was taken at Elstree in the late Sixties.
GORDON BAIN'S magnificent plate was taken during a sortie from Shoreham in August. Peter Harrison was the pilot.
Peter Harrison makes a masterly arrival at the de Havilland Moth Clubs rally at Woburn on August 17, less than a week after the Rapide’s first post-restoration flight.
