I regularly used to see one of Tommy Sopwith's Squirrels landing in that NE corner of Shoreham airfield, I think he used to just hop over the fence and into a car - summer '88(?)

Also heard the lurid tales of Lord Snorty stumbling out of his H500 at Battersea with white powder all over his shirt, and at other times inexplicably returning from the Channel Isles by sea while someone else (his pilot?) flew the helo and bags in unaccompanied. One can only surmise why...

I will try to dig out my Enstrom pics soon.
