Photo Comment

In a photograph that could almost have been taken in the 1940s, these two aircraft passed through Hucknall on the de Havilland Moth Club UK tour. The one nearest the camera is a rare surviving Queen Bee which was an unmanned, radio-controlled target drone aircraft used for gunnery practice. The rear aircraft is G-APAP
