It started life as Oxford V3679 in 1941 and after fours years service was the first converted by Airspeed as a Consul. Initially operated by / for the Bata Shoe company it then in 1948 went to Air Enterprises at Gatwick. Full details can be found if you purchase a copy of the excellent Air Britian “The Oxford, Consul and Envoy File” by John Hamlin.

I must express a fondness for the Consul as I flew in the last survivor of the type (hence my Avatar).:)
