It is indeed Leif. I need to go back and look again
What were Avro thinking when they built the Type F??

Actually some of the things in there make you wonder....
the prototype Pioneer that appears to be powered by a Gypsy?
And the thing which looks like a Bugatti racer -- Keith Paine spotted it as a Planet Satelitte it flew once at Blackbushe and broke its back
it was made from Magnesium alloy.
also i was never aware that there was both a Vega and a trimotor on the UK Register.

I don't think the Type F ever flew - no-one could figure out how to get in!
