"Sticky" Bostock, Hornet Moth to be precise. Got farmer´s permission to use the field and had a section of the fence onto the old wartime airfield/runway made removable. Not sure how happy OC GD was when the found the CO liked to fly up to inspect the T91 rather than go in the staff car though. Folding wings allowed it to fit in the hangar with the Sea Kings. They weren´t particularily happy about it as I recall, but he had the Stn Cdr´s approval....
