The Wizard was developed from a racing aircraft powered by Rolls Royce Falcon. After an accident, the Racer was rebuilt a fighter called the Wizard. The engine was a Rolls Royce F.XI soon to be called the Kestrel. Air Ministry interest led to a request to modify the aircraft to improve visibility for the pilot. The engine was also upgraded to a supercharged F.IX. When the modified aircraft, the Wizard II, had poorer performance than the Mk.I , it was decided to drop it because there was not enough gain over biplanes. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The Witch was the one and only prototype of a bomber built to specification 23/25. None of the contenders were selected for production. The Witch found use testing parachutes until 1931. The location is likely to be RAF Andover where the Witch and other Westland military aircraft of this era made their first flights. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

This was the first Victoria IV, which had metal wings and Bristol Jupiter radial engines. 10 early models were given metal wings and a further three had a metal airframe under the designation Victoria IV. These aircraft retained their Napier Lion engines. J9250 crashed on March 29, 1931. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The first of two Pipits. This photo shows it in its final form before it crashed at Martlesham Heath on September 20. From the outset the Pipit had problems and had received horn balances on rudder and elevators. Soon into testing the tailplane failed. The second Pipit, N233, had a new fin and rudder, ailerons on both sets of wings and struts on the tailplane. The new fin/rudder tail was soon replaced by the old one. N233 crashed in February 24, 1929 when the fin failed. The pilots survived the accidents but not the Pipit. Photo from: Imperial War Museums
