Photo Comment

This Sealand was registered as G-AKLS in Nov-1947. This was cancelled in Mar-1949 to be sold to Trinidad as VP-TBC but this registration was not taken up. It was again registered G-AKLS in Nov-1950 and cancelled in May-1951. It then was testflown as G-14-2 before being sold to Yugoslavia . In Oct-1951 it was delivered with the ferry registration YU-CFK and on arrival became 0662 with the Air Force. Its last flight was made 18-Dec-1962 and it became part of the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. Reports that this aircraft flew with JAT as YU-CFK are erroneous.
