Didn't see it... wasn't that the Lincoln that's gone to Sandtoft or wherever...
Couldn't see inside Aces' Hangar so don't know what was going on. Think Ray Thomas may still be working on the CASA inside...
Edwards Brothers had to Daks on the ramp minus props, but otherwise fairly health looking, plus the Beech 18 that flew in from Rochester a couple of years ago - think it's US reg'd ex G-AYAH or something (went past Rochester around then, thought "That'll never fly again... how wrong can you be!), there was also a Catalina on the ramp plus another inside the other end of Aces' Hangar - one was the ex Arnold Orange one, the other was in a rather jolly US Navy scheme and I think came up from Italy. I think I read on Prune that the guy who ferried the Chilean one from Portugal to Australia has a contract to ferry these two elsewhere...
