Canterbury Aero Club buildings at Wigram

Late 1930s

"My father took this photo of the Canterbury Aero Club buildings at Wigram in the late 1930s. The two biplanes were Gipsy Moths. The registration numbers on the other two planes help to identify them. The one on the left was a Miles Hawk and the other a Percival Vega Gull. I don't know who who the two boys were." - contributors note.
