Регистрационный номер: G-AAJK [7] If the outer interplane struts of this biplane look familiar, it is because they and the lower wing were from the HAC.1 Mayfly. The Cheetah, built by ex-Halton apprentice Fg Off John Clarke, was completed in 1929. Powered by a 35 h.p. Blackburne Thrush three-cylinder radial engine, it also used the wings and possibly the tail surfaces of a D.H.53 Humming Bird. With the lower wings and outer struts removed, the Cheetah could be flown as a monoplane. The Cheetah was granted a C of A and registered G-AAJK, surviving to undergo yet another metamorphosis, into the Martin Monoplane, in 1937-38.
