After many years I finally obtained , with the help of John Berkeley, the 1930 Heath Parasol G-AFZE. it had been left out in the open in a Surrey residential garden for 20 years after the death of her owner Des St Cyrian and was in a very poor condition. This is the sole surviving UK built Heath Parasol , its past records of flying have been lost, I would love to have any information particularly when it was based at Old Warden during the 1980s. The wings had to be re-made as they were in a very bad condition , most of the metalwork has been saved and original timber was incorporated within the rebuild were possible.I would like to thank Stuart McConnagher for furnishing me with the original drawings and invaluable information. |
