AVRO XIX G-AHKX, the former Smiths Industries demonstrator which is nearing the end of a 15-year restoration to airworthiness by volunteer retired workers at Avro International Aerospace (BAe Woodford), has scooped the £1,000 Aeroplane Monthly Preservation Project of the Year Award. Narrowly beating the Brooklands Museum's Vickers Wellington and Peter McMillan's Vickers Vimy replica, the Avro XIX was voted into first place by Aeroplane readers in a final tussle before the deadline of December 31 last year.

Immediately before its departure from the UK for Biafra G-AWMH had been specially camouflaged for participation in the film The Battle of Britain. It was repainted at Bovingdon airfield in overall white, and bore red crosses for Biafran operations. The aircraft is seen here at Jersey during its delivery flight.

The maximum permissible load for an Avro XIX was frequently exceeded. Milk powder, salt or Complan cargoes were also sometimes under threat from a leaking fuselage roof during the height of tropical storms. G-AWMG is seen being loaded for a Sao Tome Fernando Po shuttle, a role subsequently taken over by Fred Olsen C-46 Commando transport aircraft. To make more room the crew jettisoned the liferaft and other emergency equipment.

Aeroplane Monthly 1993-02 / Personal album. Civil

The Fernando Po authorities refused to allow dawn supply flights to Biafra and in a vain attempt to divert attention the Anson's flightplan always showed either Sao Tome or Libreville in Gabon as the destination. On one occasion in August 1968 a locally-based Spanish Air Force Detachment T-6 Harvard was flown out to escort G-AWMG on its return to Fernando Po. When asked why the aircraft was approaching from the direction of Biafra the crew "admitted" to having got lost.

Avro Anson C.19 VM328 had quite a distinguished career, being based at Paris for use by the British Air Attache from July 1948 until October 1949, and then serving with Air Forces Western Europe at Fontainbleu (renamed HQ, Allied Air Forces Central Europe in May 1951) from July 1950 until June 1955. It subsequently served as a communications aircraft with various units including 2 TAF Communications Squadron, Station Flight Hornchurch, 61 Group Communications Squadron and Station Flight, Lyneham, before it was finally sold for scrap on October 4, 1963.

At Abidjan on the Ivory Coast officials warned G-AWMG’s crew that Nigerian MiG-19s were planning to intercept the Anson on its Lome to Sao Tome sector. To thwart this threat the crew extended the aircraft's range to 700 miles by installing three 45gal oil drums in pyramid fashion just aft of the cockpit with a gravity feed into the main fuel crossfeed. To transfer fuel from the top drum to the lower two required syphoning via a length of hose holding a thumb over one end as the upper drum emptied twice as fast as the lower two! In this photograph Mike Draper expresses concern over the shifting of the centre of gravity and the strong smell of fuel. The instruments suggest that the aircraft was on course and cruising at 2,000 r.p.m.

As the aircraft approached, a violent sandstorm swept across, obscuring the landing area. In order to bring the aircraft to a swift halt the crew retracted the undercarriage immediately after touchdown. Only the props and pitot tube sustained damage, and it was not long before G-AWMH was airborne once more.

After a spell of flights to Biafra and the reorganisation of night flights to Uli, the crew of Anson G-AWMG was tasked with a low-level air-drop of vital Complan to a remote leprosy settlement in the valley of Uzuakoli, north-east of Umuahia, on September 3, 1968. The settlement was close to the front line and was in danger of being cut off by the advancing Nigerian Army. The Anson had completed three low-level passes at near stalling speed and had dropped half its cargo when, while losing height for the fourth run, it came under enemy small-arms fire. The aircraft was hit in the port engine and, left with insufficient power, crashed into a yam plantation. Fearful of attack from the Nigerian Air Force, Mike Draper and local helpers camouflaged the wreckage. Several days later, and with a refugee family living inside the wreck, the site was rocketed by Nigerian L-29 Delfins and bombed by a lone Ilyushin Il-28. Eventually the Anson was overrun by advancing Nigerian troops after Christmas 1968.
