Yes, a Percival Proctor. Had the pleasure of doing an endorsement on one in the early 60's.

As I remember the hand brake lever was attached to the centre section spar by woodscrews and I know of one occasion when vigourous application of brake pulled the said lever out of the spar with disastrous results on an ag strip.

Thought they were all grounded in the early 60's due to the box spar/glue problem.
