I hardly think that Old Warden could be considered the Speed Six's ancestral home. Yes the aircraft was based there for several years but I think places like Woodley and Wolverhampton hold a stronger claim.

Woodley was where the aircraft was built and Roger often over flies the museum there when in the Speed Six.

Wolverhampton was the aircraft's base for many years when owned by Ron Paine. It is also where Roger first saw the aircraft as a boy and promised himself that one day he would own the aircraft.

The importnat thing is that the aircraft is flying and be displayed again!

Hairyplane, Roger is workig on lowering his DA limit but unfortunately no one was available to sign him off for a lower DA that weekend.

Airbedane, rest assured the Speed Six will be displayed at Old Warden as often as possible, invitations to display at Old Warden will always be welcomed.
