Регистрационный номер: G-ACPB Avro Cadet 640 G-ACPB was registered 11.4.34 and used by Alan Cobham in his flying displays in 1934/5. As a 3-seater it could carry 2 fare-paying passengers on pleasure flights. It was logged on Army Co-op duties at Elmdon 11.7.39 with Utility Air Services (which we cannot identify) - at which time it was owned by J L Bebb and probably based at Hooton, where Utility Airways also had a Cadet. Bebb founded Supreme Air Services 6.39 at Hooton but no aircraft seem to have been registered as such. Can anyone clarify?
