First Prototype Wackett Trainer

[brianwalker01]

Hi,
I have an original photograph of the first prototype Wackett trainer with the 145 Ph De Havilland Gipsy Major four-cylinder air-cooled inverted in-line engine, which was taken in September 1939. I have been searching on the internet for this plane but I could not find a photo of it. Could someone please post a photo of their understanding of this plane to compare?

Well, the production Wackett below is well-documented, but I am sure folks would love to see a pic of the original prototype.
