Thompson Aircraft Refueller Part Two

Photobucket

I've already mentioned the Thompson aircraft refueller, a common sight at airfields and airports in the 1930's, here http://art-deco-uk.blogspot.com/2009/08/thompson-aircraft-refueller.html , and came across this great advert marketing them in the July 1 1937 issue of Flight magazine, still going today and with an online archive of past issues, accessible here http://www.flightglobal.com/

Now the weather is finally improving i'm hoping to make it down to Brooklands before too long, would be nice to get a better photograph of the Thompson refueller, and hopefully the paintwork will be in better condition too
