Don, the one nearest the camera is a Hawker Demon, and third along a Hawker Nimrod. Fourth along is a Hawker Hind, a later variant of the Hart. Well spotted!
Amazing could be the Mid 30’s Who could have imagined then that some 70+ years later we would have today such a variety of classic aeroplanes current and flying…..
Looks much like a period photo. Nice image!
That’s a great line up – nicely treated image too Ian
I love the sepia tones of this Ian!! All work really well, together!! The perspective of the aeroplanes really adds to the scene!!
Cool shot in B/W!
Thanks all. I asked the steward in the hi-vis jacket to move out of the way so I could take this, so it needed using really.
fabulous looking planes,grand shot Ian
Definitely back in the day imagery
They look a bit like Hawker Harts?
cracking line up could be 1935 !
