A rare Percival Prince preserved in poor condition in Frank Motter's Thunder Air Museum. In the 1960s this aircraft flew for the Decca Navigator Company as G-ALWH (faded titles still clearly visible on the nose). Sold to the USA in Nov 1976 and left Biggin Hill, UK on delivery on 23 Mar 1977. It last flew in 1978 and was stored at Van Nuys, CA. It went through several owners without ever leaving there, before ending up in the hands of Frank Motter in early 2009. It was dismantled at Van Nuys in Feb 2009 and trucked to the museum the following month. This photo is copyright © Aad van der Voet, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
