Anyone have a Kent registered *KK plated Devon or Dormobile? I have started a survivors registry for Buses that had the first part of life as part of Airport Hire in Biggin Hill.

The buses I'm looking for would have been supplied by Wolfe Garage and registered to Maitland, J.R.

If you have a *KK bus Kent archives hold the original registration documents, that's how I found out my Bus started life as a holiday hire.

What year would it have been? I have a late bay with registration starting kkw but its a 1975 reg so I guess its too new? Interestingly I also currently work at Biggin Hill airport and live in Devon

I can't find any records for Airport hire after 1975, so unsure. Kent plates are ?KK, so mine is AKK 336K
The company was owned by Jock Maitland a former RAF ww2 and Korea pilot.
