I've been back to see what's left of Ted's modelling collection. A lot of the old magazines have been sold to a collector but we still found some interesting model's and literature. This is just a taster. I will be adding to this thread very soon.

Just done a quick search and Lady Whitten Brown is the wife of the Scottish aviator. Sir Arthur Whitten Brown, the first man to fly across the Atlantic. He lived just a stones throw away from me in Langland until his death in 1948. Lady Whitten Brown presented the prizes at the 1951 National Championships at Fairwood, Swansea. A little write up is on page 6 of this enjoyable newsletter. **LINK**

Here are some more photo's, sorry a couple are doubles. My friend is checking to see if he can find more. Lady Witten Brown giving out prizes at a National Championships Looks as if this one landed in a bog The Gypsy Moth and a ???? sea plane Not sure where the Air Show is taking place, perhaps Singleton Park? The Flea is at Fairwood and the Goppengen landed a bit short of Fairwood in a field near Venaway Lane.
