Built by the British Aircraft Company (1935) Ltd, London Air Park (Hanworth), Middlesex in August 1935. First registered (C of R 6262) on 23.10.35 as G-ASDA to Anglian Air Services. C of A "Auth.13" issued November 1935. Sold on and re-registered to F.E. Tasker, Maylands Aerodrome, Harold Hill, Romford, Essex. Sold on and re-regsitered to Ely Aero Club, Ely, Cambridgeshire. Sold on and re-registered (C of R 8229) on 18.11.37 to Ray Bullock, Fraddon, Cornwall.
Written off (destroyed by fire) when burnt out in a hangar fire while parked at St. Columb Major, Cornwall, in 1938. Registration G-ASDA belatedly cancelled post war ("Cancellation by Secretary of State) on 1.12.46, probably as a result in the Air Ministry's 1946 census into the continued survival (or not) or all pre-war British registered civil aircraft
NOTE: As the exact date has not been ascertained, the date of 31/12/38 is purely a "nominal" date until the correct exact date has been established. G-ADSA was destroyed by fire at some point in 1938, and logically that has to have been no later than 31/12/38 (the last day of the year)
