Thanks T.
I was reluctant to suggest Habbanya as I'm sure many others were.
However here is the next challenge.

No Dyce Tom, though I'm sure this Bandit would have been there many times.
I suppose it would have had props then.

Bartow Airport, Florida and EMP1101P1 in the foreground.

Bartow, named after the first Confederate Officer to die in the American Civil War, Francis S Bartow.

Clint.
You are truly amazing. I was at Bartow for 2 years and never knew the origin of the name. I had a whole host of clues lined up for this one.
I don't know why a UK registered Bandeirante should end it's life in Florida it was already there in 93 and was later cremated by the local fire service two miles down the road.
Over to you Mr Grubby
