Thats a Riley Dove, a McAlpine conversion (minus its Lycoming engines), that used to belong to Bristows, before the Biafrans stole it.
Came to grief at night when it collided with a "Mammy Wagon" on take off, hence the damaged wing tip.
The picture shown looks VERY like the one I took in 1970, and appears in the book "Shadows".
