PIAGGIO P.136. The Piaggio P.136 has been produced, so far, in three different versions. The standard type, in production for the Italian Air Force as an air-sea rescue machine, is being built at Finale-degura, one of the three Piaggio plants in Italy. Fourteen training and reconnaissance P.136s have already been delivered . First flight of the prototype took place late in 1945. After the certification tests had been completed in 1949, one machine was ordered by the Italian Government, and after testing it, they ordered the fourteen referred to above in 1950. Some three years later, the manufacturing licence for the United States was acquired by the Royal Aircraft Corporation of Milwaukee, who are building two civil versions, the P.136L and P. 136L-1. See below for differences. The American version goes by the name of Royal Gull .

This Gipsy Moth is assumed to be G-AAWO (c/n 1235), but can anyone explain the significance of the symbols on the cowling? The photo, by P.R.A.Barrington, via Don Hannah, is said to have been taken at White Waltham in 1953 but this must be at least partly incorrect as the presence of a British-registered Piaggio P.136 on the right puts it between 1955 and 1958. Any other suggestions would be welcome!
