1970 Royal Tour

In April 1970

Miles M.65 Gemini at the airport had to be moved out of sight. A rope was attached to the tailwheel and a tractor pulled from the front, with the expectation that the inverted aircraft would be pulled over on to its undercarriage legs. However the deteriorated wooden fuselage was crushed and broke up. The wreck was moved out of sight on the airport.[2]
