I'll go with this one i've dug out from way back, scanned from a print (hence the poor quality). G-AELO D H Hornet Moth (built in 1936), seen here at Blackpool Air Show in 1979.

Re: Manchester 7 June

Excellent selection in pleasant morning light. Good prop blur on the 6-bladed ATRs. The Shamrock retrojet looks like it's well to the right of the centreline in the touchdown shot, which probably explains the go-around! Cheers for the reply and comments- well spotted re the Shamrock off centreline!...

A 5am start from home and a pleasant stroll along the south side of 05R to get a bit of camera practice in and catch some early morning arrivals (path was bone dry for a change-its usually walking boots or wellies required!).
