Built at Mascot, Sydney. Flown from a nearby cow paddock that is today's Sydney International Airport. G-AUDR registered in 1922, the year AAEC went bust. It had been formed three years earlier to make 504Ks. -UDR initially fitted with a Sunbeam Dyak engine but in the photo has a more powerful Curtiss K6. The distinctive 504 rudder has been replaced with a fin and rudder resembling that of an Avro Avian. Avro wrecked in a gale at Moora Valley c1926. Photo from: State Library of Queensland
