Регистрационный номер: G-AFIN The Chrislea L.C.1 Airguard G-AFIN. Built at Heston in 1938, the side-by-side cabin two-seater was powered by a 62 h.p. Walter Mikron 2 engine. The L.C.1 had an all-up height of 1,300lb and cruised at 101 m.p.h.
Sporting its dapper undercarriage fairings, or “spats”, and its final dashing pale blue and white colour scheme, the sole Airguard awaits another flight from Heston. It appears that the aircraft was never evaluated by the Air Ministry for Civil Air Guard service, possibly owing to its foreign engine, but also perhaps because of the perception that its neutral stability may have limited its value as a military trainer.Самолёты на фотографии: Chrislea L.C.1 Airguard - Великобритания - 1938
