G-EAQS
de Havilland
D.H.16
(c/n P.5E)
The D.H.16 was a modified/updated version of the D.H.9. Four
passengers were seated
in a cramped little cabin, although it did have a heater. Access
was through the roof.
Passengers climbed a three step ladder up and over the coming and down
into the
cabin. Not for the feint of heart, I should think, and a
slight problem for well dressed
ladies G-EAQS was one of several aircraft making the
Croyden to Paris service for
Aircraft
Transport and Travel Ltd starting in 1919 and running for a couple of
years
until
about 1922. .
