| I believe that this Super Ace AP-ADT is the plane bought from the Lahore Flying Club, by my brother, Frank Bryan Hartley in 1957. He restored it and then flew it back to England with his wife and a fiend as passengers. They got as far as Croydon when during a test flight one fin became partially detached and and my brother was forced to crash land. The plane was then taken by road to Barton where it was repaired and sold. | |
