What did I see?

[Dr Jekyll]

There was an aircraft I didn't recognise at Kemble on Sunday.

A small twin with a tailwheel, and possibly 2 tandem seats. Despite being old fashioned in concept it looked modern in detail.

What was it?

Don't have a picture, but could it have been the Philips Speedtwin?. It displayed at Farnborough many years ago, but it's designer died shortly afterwards, I believe. I heard recently that it was still extant.

That could well be it. It did seem to have a fixed undercarriage and I remember the reg was G -S something.

Thanks.
