These three images were
originally from Qantas archives. They illustrate one of the three
aircraft
acquired
by the company, following its formation in 1920. (The other
two were an Avro 504 and
an
Avro Triplane). At the foot of the page is a rare image
showing
the B.E.2e still wearing its mil-
itary serial C6986 but with Queensland
& N.T. Aerial Service Co.
Ltd - Winton & Longreach
titling on the fin. G-AUBF was
withdrawn from use in 1926.
