1st of type on AC !

The Avro Model 621 was designed by Roy Chadwick as an Avro private venture metal replacement for the Avro 504. Conceived as a light initial pilot trainer, the biplane design featured heavily staggered equal span, single-bay wings; the construction was based on steel tubing (with some wooden components in the wing ribs) with doped linen covering. A conventional, fixed divided main undercarriage with tail skid was used in all but the latest aircraft, which had a tail wheel.

Built in 1933 ex RAF K3215 (Painted as "K3241" in the colours of the Central Flying School)

Thanks for your kind comments, Josep....much appreciated. We are very lucky, in the UK, to have a long & proud history of aviation.....and the many museums reflect just that.

See :- http://www.aviationmuseum.eu/World/Europe/UK/index.htm

Having said that, The Shuttleworth Collection at Old Warden is very unique in so far as most of the exhibits are very old and in flying condition.


Sí, soy muy afortunado !
