Manchester Monday 2 24th November 2025.

G-BTGL, Avid Flyer Speed Wing, being prepared for a flight outside one of the hangars at Manchester Barton, some time in the 1990s.
I know the wings on these could be folded back for towing/ground transport, and I'm assuming that the white thing he is holding is some sort of cover, but I'm having difficulty parsing how it works.
