Miles Hawk Speed Six

Mentioning the Gemini made me think of this beautiful aircraft which I first saw at the Kings Cup in the early 60s at Coventry. It was owned by Ron Paine the boss of Derby Aiwways which became British Midland.

Many years ago i saw it for sale in Flight Magazine and phoned up and sure enough it was 'Pongo' Pain!

I belive its now at Shuttleworth, anyone got any pre Shuttleworth pics or further info on this a/c.Never could understand why it was the only one on the register!
