Pobjoy-built in 1937, this Scion light airliner served as a floatplane prewar in Sierra Leone. Operational in the UK until the early 1950s, the aircraft became derelict and only its frame survived in storage. Remains were removed to Rochester Airport in 2013 and it is being rebuilt the Medway Aircraft Preservation Society.
