James Air Taxis.

Had a few trips in his Miles "Gemini "..the little wooden twin, when I worked there briefly as a hangar "gopher", late 50s. Was learning to fly at the time.
First solo was in an Illawarra FS Champion Tri-Traveller.

Never had a camera in those days...Anyone got any James Gemini pics ??

DCA put a stopper on the wooden machines...dont know of James history after that.

Sure was some diverse machine around then... Gannets, Vampires, Austers, Tigers of course, and a host of others. Sid Marshalls hangar was an Alladins cave as well.
