One of two surviving examples of the Savoia-Marchetti S-56B, licence-built by American Aeronautical Corporation from 1929. This one had just arrived at Duxford at the start of a European tour, possibly in commemoration of a 1931 flight from London to Hong Kong by Smith Reynolds, an ancestor of the present owners of N194M. (The other S-56B is preserved outside the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City, NY, but is now in poor condition due to corrosion.)
