Us old 'uns grew up on Cessna's and Piper's, spam cans as opposed to modern synthetics - Vans, Rans, Jabiru, Europa etc
Maybe we forget that with age they are now ' classic '. A few in the weeds at Elstree.

that brings back some memories Phil, I haven't been to Elstree for about 20 years and it was always interesting to have a walk about.

I cant remember if any of those were in the dump area last time I visited! Nice to know that full access is still available

thanks for the pics and the list
