Photo Comment

Seen in open store at Lavenham one very gloomy Sunday afternoon just before Christmas 1969. Following the demise of the Historic Aircraft Preservation Society its aircraft were taken over by Reflectaire Limited led by John Roast and some were moved to Lavenham, Suffolk, including G-ASXX which was flown from Biggin Hill to Lavenham by Neil Williams on 30 March 1969. It remained at Lavenham until 7 February 1970 when it flew to Hullavington, Wilts.
