Fowler AA7 class engines 15364/5 ‘Windsor’ and ‘Sandringham’ in 1950-1951
Peter Hammond, on the bicycle, contacted the Club from Norfolk with information on this pair of engines. He suggested that they were ‘Prince’ and ‘Princess’ but they have since been identified as ‘Windsor’ (foreground) and ‘Sandringham’ numbers 15364 and 15365, 18hp AA7 class engines built in 1919, owned by John Patten of Little Hadham. The engines were initially called ‘Pat’ and ‘Fan’ but their names were changed around 1950. The engines are pictured in 1950-1951 when at Shingwell Aerodrome, Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, where they were engaged in pulling up the coconut mats that had been laid to create a training aerodrome using a cultivator with two tynes down. Peter also recalls that Fowler AA7 class engines 15362 and 15363 ‘Lion’ and ‘Tiger’ built in 1919 were present and using a mole drainer to pull out buried cables. His father drove ‘Lion’ from 1926 until 1960 when the pair was sold to J.W. Hardwick & Sons.
‘Windsor’ and ‘Sandringham’, Fowler BB 14383 and 14384, set off to work at Shingwell Aerodrome, Sawbridgeworth, Herts.
