  • N8115 / NC8115 1929 Travel Air D-4000

After poor summer weather here in the UK , the sun finally decided to shine last weekend at the Sywell Revival meet - attracting over 350 aircraft to the Saturday Fly-in - this was intended to be a forerunner to next year the

LAA (Light Aircraft Association) hosting a National Aircraft Rally.

Many interesting aircraft participated - but one surprise visitor was a 1929 built

Travel Air D-4000 which was rumoured to have only recently arrived in the UK

Can anyone expand on its recent or distant history in the US ?
