Indeed you’re right, Oracal. G-AC– registrations not appearing till October 1932.

I agree, Sopwith, that’s incredible flying. Looking at an old local newspaper clipping re. the 1935 display it looks like that “act” was changed a bit. It reads –

“The exhibition will include….what is described as “flying’s most difficult feat” by Mr Louis Rowley, who picks up with his wingtip a flag held in a man’s hand”

Which of those was “most difficult” I wouldn’t like to say!

Hi FarlamAirframes,

Looks like the late production Beaufort Mk I had the same (or very similar) antenna housing.

Blenheim Mk V (Bisley)? Some of them had a clear loop antenna housing. I think I’ve seen a pic of the Mk IV with the same but can’t find it at the mo.

I’ve never heard of that railway before. Looks a nice little line. Pity it was so short-lived.

There’s a short video of it on Youtube –

Now that would be useful, AA!

I’ve darkened the photo down a bit and it looks like a B is the next letter of the registration after the A. However, I agree with Avion Ancien and it could very well be a French or Italian aircraft. I wouldn’t discount the Klemm L27 either. Hopefully, the OP can give us some background info on the photo.

That’s a beautiful location! Great that such a variety of historic aircraft are making it their home.

Ok sorry. It’s just that number is in The Anson File and also in Avro Aircraft since 1908 as one of the 6th RAF production batch, N9713 to N9752.

I didn’t realise they duplicated serial numbers.

Hi FarlamAirframes,

N9718 is an Anson Mk.1 according to one of my books.

Oh, that’s sad! Good that no-one was hurt though.
