Photo Comment

Photo taken in the summer of 1976. Parked with Sopwith Dove/Pup G-EBKY, the Camel is now preserved by the Fleet Air Arm Museum, RNAS Yeovilton. It had just been registered to Tony Carlisle (June 1976) having returned from a spell in the USA. He sold it in January 1977 to Leisure Sport Ltd who operated it from Thorpe Park.
