Hallo everyone. At the beginning of the thread I threatened to post my all-time favourite photo of a Gemini, taken at White Waltham at the end of the fifties, beginning of the sixties. Then I lost it, and didn't have a site to post it on.

A rummage in the cellar proved positive, and a friend has posted it, so here it is. I'd love to hear something about 'KHY.

There was also debate about the Trainer G-AFBS, which I reckoned was owned by Dick Emery. I have found a list of movements at Blackbushe in which I show G-AITN (Dick Emery), which doesn't mean that FBS wasn't his, but certainly throws a new light on it. I believe I took the photo the day FBS cartwheeled on arrival at the 'Bushe.

I was also extremely pleased to talk on the phone this week to Stuart Marshall, an old spotter-friend, still Manager at Blackbushe, and still working on a history of the airfield.

All the best, from a snowy Frankfurt on the Main!
