G-AUCE Avro
504K
(c/n AAEC/6)
The caption on this
image, from the E.W. Searle collection (via the National Library of
Australia)
identifies this
504K as being G-AUCE 'flying over two parked aircraft' in 1920.
Location not given,
although probably Mascot, since this
aircraft was one of several 504Ks built by the Australian
Aircraft & Engineering Company from Avro supplied components, and
whose works was at that
airfield. As such it carries an AAEC
c/n. Like many of these old library shots, I think
the date
may be a year off since -UCE was not
officially registered until 28
June 1921. Its C of A lapsed
two years later in
June of 1923 and was never renewed. .. .
