I am currently based in the UK working for a historic aircraft restoration company restoring WW1 and WW2 aircraft. Our latest work is an airworthy DH9 that will soon be get its permit to test.
I believe Pierre van Ryneveld with Quinton Brand flew a DH9 on the last leg of his record breaking flight from London to Cape Town in 1920.
We urgently need to contact Jens Frischmuth of http://www.goingairside.com. Our emails to his address are being rejected.
He is connected to South African National Museum of Military History and we urgently seek his advice.
Can anyone help?

Good luck.
