EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Avro Anson C.XIX series 2, registration G-AVCK (ex-RAF TX157), parked gracefully at Baginton Airport in Coventry during the late 1960s. The Avro Anson, a versatile and iconic British aircraft, served the Royal Air Force (RAF) with distinction as a trainer and transport aircraft before its retirement and sale to T.A.T. Ltd. in September 1967. G-AVCK, adorned with the T.A.T. Ltd. livery, stands proudly against the backdrop of the bustling airport, its sleek lines and meticulously maintained finish a testament to the dedication of its new owners. The Avro Anson, a stalwart of the British aviation industry, was a mainstay of the RAF's fleet for over three decades, and its legacy continued in the hands of T.A.T. Ltd. Sadly, the Avro Anson's tenure with T.A.T. Ltd. was brief, as the aircraft was scrapped sometime in 1969. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the rich history of the Avro Anson and the important role it played in the annals of aviation. The Avro Anson, a true aeronautical marvel, continues to captivate aviation enthusiasts and historians alike, as a symbol of the ingenuity and innovation that has defined the industry for generations.
