Well that looks like one of the Tracey Brothers on the right, so I'll venture Thunderbird II :} Either that or a KC-97...

Miles Aerovan
 
Slightly OT but does anyone know of the fate of the Aerovan that resided in the old North Devon Flying Club hangar at Wrafton (West end of RAF Chivenor near the old railway station)? Beleive it was used (or intended) for air service to Lundy Island.

You must be talking 1950s/1960s? - I believe the Aerovan pranged on Lundy.

Edited: just been doing some googling - it was G-AJOG, but no accident is mentioned.

Howz about the Boeing YC 14. If I'm right I cannot post quickly so someone else please take up the baton.

Sorry, don't have access to any suitable challenges at this time so anyone feel free to take my place. Anyone remember the excellent flightdeck pictures that once appeared in the inside back page of Flight Int. in the 1970s?

Hawker Cygnet?

jabberwok 13th Mar 2006 17:27

A bit later than the Cygnet but right country.

Edited after checking the facts..
