Original slide carries date 'About 1934'. First registered 11 March 1932 to Westland Aircraft, then on -5 April 1932 to Portsmouth, Southsea & Isle of Wight Aviation and depicted here operating their service from Portsmouth to Ryde, Isle of Wight, which it had inaugurated on 27 June 1932 and became widely known as 'The Spithead Ferry'. On -8 June 1936, it stalled on approach to Ryde and went through the boundary fence, which removed the undercarriage.
