Seen at Marsh Leys Farm, Kempston, after the owner, G.A.Chamberlain, suffered the misfortune of a dead-stick landing in a deeply furrowed field. Having bounced off a deep ridge the Dove stalled, dropped a wing, and lost its undercarriage in the ensuing impact with the ground. Following repairs Geoff swapped it for an Avro 504K from Richard Shuttleworth and Warden Engineering converted it into the Pup that we know today. (Geoff Chamberlain photo)

K168 was a temporary registration for an aircraft intended to become G-EAHP. It is not clear if this happened as K168 was shipped to Australia where it carried K168 until it crashed on August 17, 1920. The location is likely Glenelg where Aerial Transport Company of South Australia operated joyflights until it went out of business.
