5 July 2026

Side view of a large, single-engined bi-plane rolling along a grass runway with it's tail-wheel raised into a flying position. The plane is mostly white, with the upper forward fuselage and engine cowling painted black, and a blue, white, and red roundel outlined in yellow under the rear cockpit in the middle fuselage. There are small "Royal Navy" titles on the rear fuselage, above the serial "LS326". There is a red and blue fin flash on the tail. There are 3 people visible in the 2 open cockpits on top of the plane, all bundled up in thick leather, fur-lined flying jackets and leather flying jackets - the pilot in the front cockpit, facing forward and concentrating on flying, as he should do, and 2 crew in the rear who are waving at the crowd. Short green grass fills the foreground, with trees lining the airfield perimeter in the background, under cloudy grey skies.
