Auster G-AGXH appears in a photo posted online by David Whitworth, from the Tony Clarke Collection (http://www.flickriver.com/photos/dwhitworth/5467438303/). This shows the Aerofilms name and logo painted on the nose. After the Second World War, Aerofilms Ltd used Austers to take their oblique aerial photographs. You can see how the high wing conveniently allows the camerman to shoot out of the cockpit window. Once you have opened the side window, the slipstream holds it open for you so you can concentrate on the photography! |
