I've been sent the below images by David Lane for the sole purpose of sharing them with others - the images until now have lain unseen in his collection for many years.
Apologies for including 2 military beasts but I felt they were worth sharing (Mods - please feel free to remove as I know I've exceded the 10% rule).
A throwback to the sixties - G-ARVW Piper Pa.28-160 Cherokee 1964.
D-ICAO Piper Pa.23 Aztec B. General Air. 1964
An unidentified Channel Airways Vickers Viscount taxis in to (or from) stand.
First registered in 1948 G-AKIU Percival Proctor V is seen here at Guernsey in 1964 & is after restoration still flying today.
This slightly blurred Cessna F-BJOH Guernsey is logged as having visited on 16/5/64.
Royal Air Force. WJ484 Vickers Valetta T3 (foreground) with WG260 behind, David has these aircraft logged as visiting on 23 June 1964.
Royal Air Force Blackburn Beverley C1 XL130 circa 1964. These aircraft used to visit for parachute drops off the East coast of the island.
