I thought you may be interested in some information I found while researching our family tree. It would appear my great uncle Frank Walter Humphrey (not Humphreys as stated) owned this plane from about April 1933 please see "Discover Gravesham Gravesend Airport 1933-1958" See on this link parragraph 13. http://www.discovergravesham.co.uk/business-industry/gravesend-airport-1932-1958.html My father (now 91) recalls going on a pleasure flight with his uncle when he was about 15years old in 1934 seemingly confirming was a 2 seater. It is also known Frank Walter Humphrey past his Flying Certificate 10520 on 23/05/1932. Hope you will find this information useful, if I can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact me. Regards Peter |
