Photo Comment

Built as a Sopwith Pup, converted in 1919 to s two-seat Dove and restored as a single-seat Pup between 1936 and February 1938. The registration was cancelled on 24 September 1956 on transfer to military marks (perhaps for use in the film "Reach For The Sky"?) but I have been unable to establish which marks were allocated. It was restored as G-EBKY on 29 October 1981, and is still current with the Shuttleworth Trust in 2022.
