World Speed Record 1953

Hello

Who can help me with some pictures of de Hawker Hunter WB188 when he established a speed record above Littlehampton in West Sussex on September 7, 1953. Any pictures of his flight along the 3 km coast line, his departure at RAF Tangmere would be very useful for my research about the subject. Of course any photographs of Neville Duke during his speed trials would be great. I am also researching any maps of the Air Speed Record course between Bognor and Shoreham.
Many Thanks for your help
