Owned by Eagle Air Services and rebuilt and civilianised by them. Later sold to Kuwait Airways mid in the mid 1950s. Gradidge suggests a choice of two airframes 12254 and 25806 'masquerading' as a preserved 'G-AMZZ' in Kuwait . It was amazing that airframes so degraded by open-air storage could be revived.
