‘CCB was sister aircraft to ‘CEJ flying from Southport – until she ditched into the briny.
Thereafter she was kept as a spares ship until no longer wanted and the remains (fuselage minus firewall) acquired by MAPS/MAM. Other bits (including a set of damaged Tiger wings from South Wales HAPS that had been exchanged for a pair of Auster Agricola and AOP fuselage frames) were collected and the ‘project’ passed onto Ted Gautry with whom ‘CCB is on long-term rebuild in the Midlands. I look forward to seeing the two of them reunited one day.
