A Parnall Elf, almost certainly the Elf I G-AAFH flying without marks in 1929. The reason for its significance is of course that 1980 saw the successful rebuilding and flight of the second and only remaining Elf G-AAIN at Old Warden.

No record has yet been found of the British C of A said to have been issued to Tipsy S.1 OO-TIP. Photo taken about 1936.

Looking at the cover photo on Archive no.2, Phil Butler is quite certain that no building such as the one behind G-AEKL ever existed at Speke. This leads us to the conclusion that the photo must have been taken at Gravesend prior to the naming ceremony at Speke as the aircraft was damaged and pilot Campbell Black killed in a ground collision there. By chance we have unearthed the above photos of G-AEKL showing variations in colour scheme before and after the event at Speke. Here, at Hatfield again on 10.9.37 before winning the King's Cup at the then record speed of 233.7 mph.
