The pristine condition of A9705 suggests it was at the factory or on handover to the RFC. Airco and the handover were at Hendon. A9507 was sent to 64 Squadron France in November 1917 but was back in the UK in February 1918 after being withdrawn from use. Christchurch Overseas Club was in Christchurch, New Zealand, and sponsored the aircraft.
