Photo Comment

Lancashire Aircraft Corporation operated this DH Express between May 1951 and 1957. The 1934-built four-engined biplane carried up to 16 passengers and I flew for 10 minutes this day around the famous Pleasure Beach tower and back again. This was the last extant DH.86 and was lost in an incident at Madrid Barajas on 21 September 1958.
