I am sorry for the diversion, but I have had a question mark in my my mind about a Miles Hawk Speed Six in Lincolnshire around 1957. I had almost finished a Vampire Course at RAF Swinderby when someone on the course talked me into investing twenty quid in a Taylorcraft plus 6 which was owned by a local plumber and was kept in a hangar at an old bomber airfield at Bardney. A Miles Hawk was the only other aircraft in the rather tatty old hangar and was owned by the Sports Club of a Doncaster Steel Works, I think. Anyway, we tried to contact the club boss, but failed. Had we succeeded we would have asked for permission to fly the Miles Hawk Speed Six. I would love to know what happened to what looked like a beautiful aircraft.
