The Bourges was designed to be powered by the ABC Dragonfly but problems with the engines meant F2903, the prototype, made its first flight with Bentley rotaries as the Mk. IIA. The ABC engines were fitted later as seen in this photo. F2903 entered the civil register on July 1919, as G-EACE. It was scrapped in May 1920. The location of this photo is not given but may be Mousehold, where Boulton Paul had its works, or Hendon where the F2903 made its public debut. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

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

This Pembroke was TOC with the RAF in September 1957. In June 1987 it was registered G-BNPU and the following year used as an instructional airframe by an aeronautical college at Shoreham (EGKA). By August 2002 it had been purchased by Atlantic Aviation for spares but is now in storage at SWAM.

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
