 This aircraft belonged to a local businessman, the uncle of a friend of mine in the late 1950s. It was kept at Pendeford Airfield in Wolverhampton, which is now long gone. I flew iin it a few times. I recall it was destroyed in a landing accident at Pendeford around 1958 or 59. The owner's name was Paul Barnett.
