Ex T5370. Registered 14 November 1946. Here depicted 'applying the brakes' (i.e. stick fully back) after landing on the Scotney Court water aerodrome. Sadly, this floatplane was written -off six days later, when it crashed in the sea 1/4-mile offshore from Camber, near Rye, East Sussex, with both occupants being rescued from the sea with only minor injuries. Cancelled 30 November 1982 as Destroyed. This photo is copyright © Mike Cain, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
