Stace: I'll see your AutoAlloys D model BEJY with Weetabix's BIOA and I'll raise you two more AutoAlloy's 500's .. HOOK and GOGO!

I don't know whether BIOA was part of PPRuNer Palma's collection or whether he sold this to a family member. I am fairly certain however that Palma was flying GOGO when I met him at the '79 Cranfield Airshow with Mike Smith in tow.
