Wow this brings back memories for me. In the early - mid 60s I'd wander through all the hangars and up and down the parking line looking at everything. No one ever got fussed about it. I think my first ever flight was with Marshall's but it was in a 172, not in one of their classic aircraft.

Anyone remember the old weatherboard cafe just accross the road from Marshall Airways hangar that was also a shop and sold aircraft models and the like? They sold the best meat pies and suasage rolls ever.

I remember in the Marshall hangar was a little single place low wing tail dragger with open cockpit. Anyone know what that was? They used to let us sit in it and pretend to fly.

They also had a Lockheed 18 back then too.

Yes R16, they were indeed the days.
