Six-passenger airline first flown from Cricklewood on 19 October 1926. It had Handley Page leading edge slots which are closed here. Displayed at an air pageant at Croydon already on 23 October. The three Lucifer engines gave bad vibrations. The sole Hamlet was then unsuccessfuly tested with two Lynx engines, and flown only once with three Mongoose engines. Scrapped in 1929.
