No idea how I came to possess this print! Looks like Woodford, pre-delivery. Re-reg RP-C1021 in 1974. To 9Q-CST (Shabair) in 1989, then Trans Service Airlift in 1992. Presumed scrapped.

The second prototype Avro Athena T2. Four prototypes VW890 to VW893 were built and only 15 production models of the T2 were made for the RAF. VW891 first flew on 8th January 1949 and after service was scrapped in 1952. Probably seen here at Woodford Aerodrome near Stockport in Cheshire, England sometime in 1949. Scanned from an original Avro photograph from my collection, actual date, and photographer unknown.

2 August 1947: At 1:46 p.m., G-AGWH, operating British South American Airways Flight CS59, departed Buenos Aires, Argentina enroute Santiago, Chile. At 5:41 p.m., Santiago airport received a routine Morse code signal indicating the flight would arrive in four minutes. It never arrived. Its fate remained a mystery until 1998, when two mountain climbers on Mount Tupungato, one of the highest mountains in South America, 50 miles east of Santiago, found a wrecked Rolls-Royce Merlin engine in the melting ice of a glacier at 15,000 ft.

Roy Chadwick (Designer), Bert Hinkler and R. J. Parrott (General Manager of A. V. Roe & Company Ltd) with the prototype Avian prior to Hinkler's first solo flight between England and Australia. Leaving London (Croydon) on 7 February, he arrived at his home town of Bundaberg, Queensland, on 27 February. The flight took 128 flying hours and in the process Hinkler smashed the old record time between the two countries from 28 to just over 15 days.

The Avro 627 Mailplane was developed in 1931 by Avro from the Avro Antelope bomber as a mail plane for use in Canada. Only one was built which, following trials in Canada, was returned to England. The Mailplane was converted in 1933 into a high-speed test bed for the Armstrong Siddeley Tiger engine, the revised aircraft being known as the Avro 654. Dismantled at Woodford in 1934.

The Avro 627 Mailplane was developed in 1931 by Avro from the Avro Antelope bomber as a mail plane for use in Canada. Only one was built which, following trials in Canada, was returned to England. The Mailplane was converted in 1933 into a high-speed test bed for the Armstrong Siddeley Tiger engine, the revised aircraft being known as the Avro 654. Dismantled at Woodford in 1934.
