Nice ones. Always loved the Gemini, a beatiful little machine, just a shame that its single engine performance was noticeable for being non existent.

Yup, totally agree - anything old and British is fine by me!

It's a Klemm 26. That thing below is a Wren.

Klemm 26 - isn't that the same design as the BA Swallow?

Yes, kind of. There was the "British Klemm Aeroplane Company", a subsid of the German Klemm company. The Swallow is the Klemm 25 redone to conform to British airworthiness requirements. The British Aircraft Manufacturing Company took over the British Klemm in 1935 or 36.

Not a bad try but you would have been better to go for the Dart Kitten which was based on a Klemm design.

The 25 had an inline engine, the 26 a radial - which one do you see?

Thanks for posting that you've saved me some typing. Sorry but the 25 had both.

I'm a little bored so I thought I'd post a couple more vintage GA pics. Just as interesting as warbirds in my opinion.
