Beautiful shot Richard. Was lucky enough to have a flight in one of these, later model than yours. You really needed the woolly leather jacket, scarf and goggles. Cold and the odd splash of engine oil!!!! Thrilling and memorable.

Yes John, I can confirm what you say for having experienced it too.
I had the chance over forty years ago to fly on an old SV4 biplane.

Besides the fun and wonder, I remember the cold and my white pants filled with oil stains!
