New York City's flying police squad was 'for patrolling the water front' but also 'to curb low flying over the metropolitan area' and 'to prevent airplanes from flying over congested areas'! Their brand new K-84 Commuter amphibian is seen at the old Loening factory at 31st Street at East River, Manhattan, closed later in 1929 following the merger with Keystone. Some of the New Yorkers in the staff, including Leroy Grumman, did not feel like moving to Bristol, Pennsylvania and started their own business on Long Island.

The Courier prototype seen on one of its first flights, which were carried out by RAE pilot George Stainforth. Designed as an upmarket private aircraft, the type featured retractable landing gear, and the prototype was ordered by Alan Cobham for a non-stop flight to India with aerial refuelling. He only got as far as Malta on 22 September 1934.

Third Courier production aircraft, an AS.5B, fitted with a more powerful Cheetah engine. Co-located with Airspeed at Portsmouth Airport, the RK Dundas company bought sales rights for India and G-ACLF departed to India for a demo tour in December 1933. Attempts to sell the aircraft to Spain during the Spanish Civil War blocked. To North Eastern Airways, Croydon in February 1937. To Portsmouth, Southsea & Isle of Wight Aviation in 1939 and converted to AS.5A, with fixed gear. Impressed as X9342 in 1940 and allocated to Air Transport Auxiliary. Struck off charge in 1944.

The Courier was one of the first British aircraft with retractable landing gear and one example was delivered to the RAF for trials in February 1934. It is probably seen here back at Airspeed's factory at Portsmouth for modifications later in the year. Later used as a communications aircraft, it was written off after a bad landing at Farnborough on 14 July 1943.

Aircraft of Air Service Training. The second row of Oxfords are G-AIAT, G-AITB and G-ALTR. The Austers include G-AMUI, built in 1952, and G-AXKR, sold to Vendair of Croydon in 1957 and to Sweden in 1958. Helicopter training was advertised by AST as a new addition in 1955 but I don't know when the first Hillers arrived.

Nice photo of G-ACJL without its Melbourne Air Race number 14. Note the tail logo - Aircraft Exchange & Mart at Hanworth were Courier dealers and the photo was most probably taken when the aircraft was new. In Australia the aircraft was registered VH-UUF to Aircraft Exchange & Mart, Mascot. However, it was shipped back to England during 1936, after colliding with Avro Avian VH-UGA on the ground at Essendon in 1935. There is no record of the airframe flying again in Britain, so presumably it was seriously damaged and not repaired.

One of three six-passenger Sea Eagle flying boats. Supermarine subsidiary British Marine Air Navigation Co started a Southampton to Guernsey service with these on 25 September 1923. Imperial Airways took over in May 1924, using the new Marine Airport facility in Woolston, near the Supermarine factory. The roof probably says 'Continent 1 hour, Channel Islands 1½ h' but the planned service to France did not materialise. Reg is not G-EBCS. Airframe rammed by a ship in the harbour of St Peter Port, Guernsey in January 1927 and wrecked.

One of three six-passenger Sea Eagle flying boats. Supermarine subsidiary British Marine Air Navigation Co started a Southampton to Guernsey service with these on 25 September 1923. Imperial Airways took over in May 1924, using the new Marine Airport facility in Woolston, near the Supermarine factory. The roof probably says 'Continent 1 hour, Channel Islands 1½ h' but the planned service to France did not materialise. Reg is not G-EBCS. Airframe rammed by a ship in the harbour of St Peter Port, Guernsey in January 1927 and wrecked.

The old AGO company was resurrected by the Nazi government, and built many aircraft for the Luftwaffe. A design department was set up in 1934 and it seems that D-OAGO, the first of three prototypes of the Oa 192 light transport, first flew in the summer of 1935. There is evidence of only three Ao 192B production aircraft: D-ODAF (c/n Q4), D-OLER (Q5) and D-OSSS (Q6), the latter used by the headquarters of the Waffen-SS . Assumed to be c/n Q1, D-OAGO saw military service as SA-QA. Postcard.

The bizarre Blériot 125 airliner. The twin fuselages could accommodate six passengers each, while the three crew rode in the central nacelle which also housed two Hispano-Suiza 12Hbr engines in tandem. Blériot chief pilot Charles Quatremare made the first flight on 9 March 1931, but flying characteristics were very poor. Work on the craft continued into 1933, but to no avail. Registration F-ALZD allocated but perhaps never worn. Note the 'Hôtel Blériot' at Buc.

This former Luftwaffe Ar 196 was interned in Sweden in 1943. When auctioned in 1945 it was bought by Maj John Turner of MI6, who ran observation posts in the Swedish mountains to look into German-occupied Norway. After war's end Turner flew his plane to Norway without permission - see other photo of this c/n.

The Piasecki PV-17 or HRP-2 was developed from the original Flying Banana, the PV-3 or HRP-1. With a new nose and all-metal fuselage it was very similar to the later H-21. Only five HRP-2s were built. Three of these served with the HMX-1 experimental helicopter squadron based at Quantico, Virginia, from 1950 to 1953, before going to the US Coast Guard. Note the early Neptune.

Two of the earliest S-51s were acquired by the French navy in 1951 and 1952, receiving serials AR.1 (c/n 5102) and AR.2 (c/n 5106). AR.1 was damaged in Djibouti on 7 September 1951 while presumably on its way to Indochina with the aircraft carrier Arromanches. AR.2 did make it to Indochina later. Both helicopters withdrawn from use at Saint-Raphaël, France in March 1955.

Flying time between Paris and London was about 90 minutes in the Wibault-Penhoët trimotor. Le Fougueux ran out of fuel just short of Croydon on 19 May 1934 and came down on a cricket pitch in Purley, without casualties. Later based in Dakar and renamed Ville de Kaolack. Reg cancelled in 1946.

The D.338 prototype, first flown on 9 August 1935. Following modifications, it was bought by Air France, making its first revenue flight from Paris - Le Bourget, where this photo was most probably taken, to Lyon and Marseille on 13 July 1936. F-AOZA was involved in an accident at Martimprey du Kiss (now Ahfir), Morocco, on 30 June 1942, but apparently repaired and destroyed by the RAF at Toulouse in the night of 4 April 1944.
