Detta foto hittade jag på Tradera. Var är det taget? ILIS 1931 Stockholm-Lindarängen?

Re: G-ABBC Saunders-Roe A.17 Cutty Sark i Sverige
En googling gav http://1000aircraftphotos.com/Contribut ... /12279.htm , där man kan läsa:
"With a limited production of Cutty Sarks under way, the performance was improved by the installation of cleanly cowled 120 hp de Havilland Gipsy II engines, and between March 26 and April 23, 1931, the manufacturers' chief test pilot, S.D. Scott carried out a 3,000 mls (4,828 km) sales tour to south-east Europe and also to the Stockholm Exhibition in Sweden in June of the same year. Early in 1932, Kirston and Mace formed British Amphibious Air Lines Ltd. and bought a second Cutty Sark, G-ABBC, basing both machines at Squires Gate, Jersey and operating via Liverpool to the Isle of Man."
Vad som sägs om registreringen är väl litet "lurigt".
Såg inget vid en hastig titt i tidskriften "Flygning" i artiklar kring ILIS 1931.
