There is a story to the first picture. Brian Stevens, the son of one of our clubs founder members (William Stevens), was visiting the UK and brought a lot of black and white early photos of the club from it's days on Kirby Moors in the 1930's. He had a meeting with Peter R to swap notes and pictures and has since scanned and emailed them to Peter R. But Brian is a keen fell walker and before returning to the USA went for a walk in the Lakes to find himself surrounded by all types of aviation. He took the picture of the IS 29 and included it with his photos. It turned out to be Pete Whitehead who joined our club about 1 month later.
Peter R intends to scan in his collection of early black and white photos to complement Brian's, these will be put on the website in the near future.
