✈️ Step into history at Historic Croydon Airport! Guided tours of the control tower & museum, plus a special Amy Johnson 95th anniversary exhibition. 🗓 7 Sept 2025 | 📍 Croydon Airport Visitor Centre 🔗 ticketsource.co.uk/historic-croyd… #ExploreCroydon #HiddenHistory #UKMuseums
Short S.16 Scion. This super photo serves as a reference scene as it has all the aircraft I've worked on this year. The Scion in the foreground is prototype G-ACJI in green livery. Looming behind it is the Short Scylla G-ACJJ. In the right background is the Wessex G-ACHI
Preparing references for the Short S.16 Scion. Olley Air Service ran a Scion II G-ADDO at Croydon, though there are few photos of it. The recently beautifully restored Scion G-AEZF, displayed at Rochester cathedral, was also at Croydon. The prototype G-ACJI was also seen there.
Props clear! New long read: ‘On the Shoulders of Giants’ in the well-traveled @BALPApilots journal on the rawest origins of a profession through the lens of pilot and machine a century ago. 🫡 🇬🇧 ✈️ 🧑✈️
Animation has been added to the Kégresse and it is now ready to tow the Argosy.
Air France Dewoitine 338 F-ARIB ‘Ville de Bangkok’ in 1939. A long range version of the D.338 for the Paris-Dakar, Paris-Hong Kong, and South American routes. Payload and speed not quite a match its contemporary DC-3, but what panache! (Musee Air France)
Another view of the Kégresse and the Short Scylla. #imperialairways #croydonairport #citreon
Citroën Kégresse P4T progress The Imperial Airways half-track tug is now completed apart from the windscreen and hood.
This shows the scale of the Scylla against the Citroën Kégresse towing tractor used by Imperial Airways at Croydon Airport
Citroën Kégresse P4T progress The body panels and mudguards have now been added. The radiator has been detailed and the lights are positioned, but the supports are not yet done. The main work outstanding is the driver's compartment, bonnet vents and panel detail.
Citroën Kégresse P4T progress The P4T track mechanism has been completed. The early Kégresse models had a rear track drive wheel. The transmission has now been added, as have the track 'teeth'. The 'half leaf' front suspension has been built, again a feature of the early models
Citroën Kégresse P4T Quite good progress today with the track mechanism which is to most complicated section of the model. The track unit is being built against a good reference photo of this version, which had the drive wheels to the rear.
Citroën Kégresse progress Just returned from holiday and have started on the model. It's taken a while to assimilate reference photos and drawings for the Kégresse P4T which is the initial version to be done. So far the chassis, bonnet and front wheels have been worked on.
