Found this Aston Martin Rapide near my home this afternoon. I guess it's nice to post a streetspot every once in a while.

An old image but I wanted to try converting to monotone. It was taken soon after a wing fire had been put out. The pilot was walking back to check on damage I suppose. I was on the plane with my daughter waiting to take off when the wing caught fire so after evacuating, it was a great photo opportunity!

A Anglaterra el De Havilland H39 Dragon Rapide es senzillament un bonic i entranyable avió de passatgers dels anys 30, però per les victimes de 40 anys de franquisme sempre tindrà el mal record de ser el model d'avió que portà Franco de les Canaries a Àfrica. Fins i tot s'en feu una pel·licula amb aquest nom.
Aquest aparell vola encara des del museu de Duxford, Anglaterra.

===========================================
In the UK, the H39 Dragon Rapide is simply a beautiful classic wings transport plane, but in Spain and Catalonia it has (sadly, because it's a beautiful plane) a darker memory. The future dictator Franco used this plane to secretly move from Canary Islands to Spanish Morocco, were he comanded the most powerful army against the Republic.
There's even a movie about that trip, precisely titled "Dragon Rapide".
