Picture of the week, Fairthorpe and Fairtravel.

This picture was used by Fairthorpe in some of their adverts in the mid 60`s, it was taken in the field adjacent to the Fairthorpe works at Denham and shows the then new EM 111 parked in front of another of AVM Don Bennetts creations. This
Fairtravel Linnett aircraft was built in 1965 and happily is still airworthy, it was one of three produced. The Linnet was licence built by the another of the AVM`s companies Fairtravel and it was in essence a slightly modified Piel Emeraude, here is a link to a current image of this Linnet.
