Imported with colonial-format Nigerian registration and registered as G-ABLE in February 1961. Cancelled as withdrawn in August 1973. The out-of-sequence registration was previously allocated to a Supermarine flying boat in 1931. [Did the owner want a 'period' mark to match the age of the aircraft, but then the CAA went too far back?]
