Weston super Mare Summer 1939

Whilst doing some local history research I came across this photo. I thought it quite charming and redolent of a gentler time that was about to end.

I thought I'd have a go at reproduction using ADE and what I could find in the fSX libraries.

 

The aeroplanes are two DH84s and a DH86. I really struggled with introducing statics so I settled for three identical DH84s.

 

The items I scrounged from the web are;

Thanks for your comments.

This is what the area looks like today. The Bloodhound Mk2 is the local councils response to residents complaints about aircraft noisewsm2.jpg
