G rass Roots Fly-in

01 Martin Overall (right) won the Prince Michael of Kent trophy for Concours d’Elegance, for his Mk.26 Spitfire.

02 Just a few of the North Weald Marshalling Team taking a well-earned break! Thanks for your work, guys!

03 The Malcolm Allen trophy for Most Meritorious Arrival was awarded to Keith Griggs. Keith flew in from East Fortune in Scotland in his CP 301A Emeraude. His route took in airfields including Compton Abbas, Wickenby, Lee on Solent, East Winch and Rochester, where he carried passengers in exchange for donations to Cancer Research UK. He is estimated to have raised over £1,500.

04 If there was a category for best tent using an aircraft, then BD-4 G-BYLS would be a winner.

05 Toby Hudson, aged 25, was awarded the Liz Inwood Taildragger Scholarship by Anne Hughes of the Vintage Aircraft Club.

06 While a bit of a rarity nowadays, it is great to see a smart example of the 1990s two-seat Pulsar kitplane.
