G-EBLG
Bristol 93 Boarhound
(c/n 6805)
The Boarhound was built to a 1926 Air
Ministry specification for a gerenal purpose two seat fighter.
It was one of
the machines tested at Martlesham Heath in 1927. Although
unsuccessful in the RAF
competition,
the design (and same type number) was used in building the Bristol
Beaver for the Mex-
ican Army
Air Force, where it gave years of reliable service. I woiuld
suspect that photographs of
Beavers (the
Bristol Type 93 kind) in Mexican Air Force markings would be worth the
exchange of
several key
body parts!
