| 説明 | C-54B G-APNH became Carvair no. 11, although the 12th to be completed, the second of only three at Southend and work progressed intermittently as there was no impending customer. In fact, the project was used to keep some of the workforce gainfully occupied when normal overhauls/repairs of British United and other operator fleets slackened off. Work began in earnest in Feb 1963 and it was not until Apr 1964 that it was rolled out of the Flight Shed, substantially complete and in primer finish. Just prior to that, someone had stencilled the unofficial name ‘Pont du Crouch’ below the cockpit windows (the Crouch is a local river well-known to yachting enthusiasts). The name can just be discerned in my photo, taken on 8 Apr 1964. G-APNH remained there until year end, finally making its first flight on 4 Jan 1965 and joined the BUAF fleet as ‘Menai Bridge’.Photo: Richard John Goring (Transportraits) |
