Photo Comment

Demonstrated at the ELTA exhibition in Amsterdam in 1919 as G-5414, G-EAAF was shipped to the US in May 1920 with Handley Page intending to set up an airline there, but this was thwarted in court and the aircraft was impounded. It was taken over by Curtiss which had good relations with HP at this time, and is seen here during an event at Curtiss Field in 1922. It apparently survived here into 1925.
