Stephen - no details = no vote.
I would like to know what, where and when.
These are especially of interest if the event is an airshow likely to be held in the future.
The engines appear to be Gypsy Moths - is the aircraft an early De Havilland?

I Belive it is a dragon fly taken at Shoreham air Show 2014.

Appears to be a de Havilland DH.90A Dragonfly.

Engines would be de Havilland Gipsy Major types.

Production of type from circa 1936 to 1938 with this example c/n 7526.

This aircraft should be British registration G-AEDU.

Stephen, You are welcome and I did not see your post until I had submitted mine. My first impression was it had a striking resemblance to the Dragon Rapide. I was unaware of your other photo of this beautiful aircraft. These are the only two photos in the FlightAware database! Thanks to You!
