Phil Smith seated on the tail looking rather glum - has the nosewheel collapsed again? The tailplane can be seen to be strut-braced and to have wool tufts attached to investigate airflow over the surface.

The Fairey Primer G-6-5, showing the modified fin and rudder, at White Waltham in 1949.
The second Fairey Primer c/n F8456 may well never have worn the marks G-ALEW even though it survived for three years. Test flown as G-6-5 in 1948 it was still in those marks when photographed at White Waltham in 1949, retaining the long rear cockpit fairing but with a much-modified taller fin and large rudder. An extension to the rear fuselage was necessary to replace the earlier lower rudder position.

A further angle on our Elly Beinhorn features is provided by this original autographed photograph of the pilot in her Messerschmitt M 23b D-1674 c/n 466 which she acquired in 9.29. It appears to refer to a Berlin to Venice flight, though the date and place of the photo are unknown it was clearly winter. It was probably signed for an Italian (as "Venezia" is used rather than the German version "Venedig") and we note the spelling of her name with a 'y'.
