A big thank you to :
The late Dave Williams for the lovely line drawing of G-AGZB. He was a highly talented commercial artist and had a number of aviation and vehicle prints available, including some classic Dakota liveries of lesser known airlines - he modified this original drawing specially so that it could be used on the site. My photography doesn't do it justice - it really is a beauty and now hangs on my office wall. Dave passed away just two days after this site first went 'on air' on 8-5-2002.
The A J Jackson Collection. This is a huge private archive of civil and military aircraft photographs dating from the early days of flight with an incredible range of illustrations, all available for purchase. Thanks for making the RAS and BEA photographs available for this site without charge .
Our sponsors FARVIS BOILERS who kindly made the web space available although we must stress that they have no involvement in the site content.

B&B near the Memorial Site
If you are looking for somewhere to B&B
on the Island you won't do better than
stay with our good friends at Hermitage Court Farm, just a few miles outside
Ventnor. If you want peace, quiet, wildlife and stunning views, together
with super cooking , wonderful hospitality ( they are both from the aviation
industry and used to providing top notch service ) plus a beautiful country home
and a relaxed atmosphere, contact Jayne and Chris by clicking on the
picture below. Too many superlatives ? - not once you've been there!

... and just a few of the sites that were used in the research:
Airline History (you can spend all day on this site! )
link not current - does anyone have details?
Wight Air Wrecks:
Mostly wartime material but they put us on the track of Zulu Bravo - and started the whole project! See the site and then read the book Andy has written - this is fascinating - you won't put it down. Great detail, well written with an easy to read style.
