Harry Butler's 'Red Devil' preserved in its own building in country South Australian town, Minlaton. Harry Butler flew this across Gulf St Vincent on August 6 1919, carrying an 18kg (40 lb) bag of mail for delivery in Minlaton - the first over water flight in SA. The wind that morning blew at 110 km/h (60 kts) and the very risky, but successful, flight took 60 minutes. Shipping in the gulf had been alerted to keep a lookout and he'd reluctantly agreed to wear an inflated inner tube around him in case he had to ditch, something that was expected! The return flight on August 11 took 27 mins.

C5001 was owned by Harry Butler, who painted it red and named it Red Devil. He used it for racing and also had an Avro 504K for joy flights. C5001 became G-AUCH in 1921. After Butler was badly injured in the crash of the Avro in 1922, the Bristol was cancelled and then stored following his death in 1923. C5001 returned to the register as VH-UQI in 1930 with a Gipsy engine in place of the Le Rhone rotary. Now preserved at Harry Butler Memorial, Minlaton, South Australia, in its 1919 markings and a Le Rhone engine fitted. Photo from: State Library of South Australia
