Sivewright Airways Anson XIX "Mancunia" had undercarriage problems on a flight from Ringway and the pilot (seen here) elected to make a wheels-up landing on Barton's grass strip. This was helped by the protruding wheels (visble). The Annie was jacked up, inspected and quickly returned to service. G-AHXK served Sivewrights from 03.48 until cessation of operations in 03.51. It later became VH-RCC.

Barton's control tower was built in early 1933 and is believed to be the oldest still in use in Europe. It originally had a large aerial array on top of the structure, but this is not now needed because of radio development in the ensuing decades. Compare with image 2113221 taken in 1934.
