Looking immaculate here, this short-nose Prince was delivered to Shell Petroleum in 1950 and flown by famous WWII pilot Douglas Bader before being sold to Venezuela as YV-PAEO later that year. She came back to Britain in 1953 and was used by the Sperry Gyroscope Co, then Decca Navigator based at Biggin Hill in 1961. Registration cancelled on export to the USA in 11.76 and ferried to Van Nuys where she remained in derelict condition as N206UP.
