VERSATILITY: The Avro Advanced Training Aeroplane, Type 626, has now been equipped in six distinct styles, which between them make the machine suitable for specialised instruction in: 1, prone bombing; 2, wireless; 3, Lewis gun (observer's); 4, "blind" flying; 5, photography; 6, Vicker's gun (pilot's). In addition, the machine is, of course, equipped for dual instruction in flying, and instruction in navigation, while by fitting floats the Trainer is suitable for instruction in seaplane flying.
