Avro Anson - The Inside Story
Seen for the first time, this new video takes you through the remarkable interior of the world's sole airworthy Avro Anson Mk.I with restorer Bill Reid providing the tour insights. The Anson embodies the most remarkable collection of correct period equipment typically used by an Anson serving as a maritime patrol bomber operating over the coast of southern England in the early stages of WW-II. This remarkable space is like a journey back in time. You have to wonder what the Oshkosh judges would think of this!

A genuine Pacific Theatre combat veteran, which served with the highly revered RAAF 75 Squadron. After three decades of abandonment in the jungles of Papua New Guinea, it was rescued and restored, long enough ago to have demonstrated just how well that job was done! This aircraft embodies the impressive 'convertible' two seat configuration, created on this very airframe by the engineers at Pion...

It was another great event at Omaka this evening as the Fokker E.III Eindecker that arrived in the country just four months ago, was fired up for the first time as a complete, intact aircraft. Four the past few months, both the airframe and the engine have benefitted from some intense scrutiny by engine specialist Tony Wytenburg, along with Wayne Tantrum, Dan Coleman and Aaron Patchett.

    Madly perfect example of what is possible. I’d love to see this bloke resurrect the Beaufort being restored in south east Queensland . Meanwhile there is at least one Bristol Beaufighter capable of being brought to flying status in NSW which would be the moneyshot of all warbirds.

    I've never seen such a well-equipped aircraft! Usually half that stuff is missing.

    Twice in the last month an Anson has flown over me at home in Shropshire. Lovely sound from the engines. Are there many still flying?

    That was a great explanation of what the guys used to get up to in the back, my Uncle (Terence McClymont) flew with Coatal Command they went to America after the war to work as a pilot and brought up 3 children, one who had to ring up the Minixter Of Transport in the middle of the night to inform him that a plane had been brought down over the Scottish Borders and landed on top of the town of Lockerbie.

    Actually a very ugly plane. The Airspeed Oxford was much prettier.

    Not forgetting that the Anson carried the first ‘beam bending’ equipment that helped to counter the first German Radio Guided bombers in the early days of the Blitz. The Ansons carried modified medical equipment that produced radio waves that effectively ‘bent the beams’

    The Shuttleworth Collection would like to buy that airworthy Avro Anson Mk.1 to UK in a future.

      It would make a lot of sense for Shuttleworth, especially if they were to use it for selling joy rides.

    In typical flying conditions it would take much skill, training and discipline to communicate and navigate, and bailing out would be hard to impossible. BZ to the brave guys who flew in these things

    at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum we have an Anson (C-FHOT RCAF 12417) which was built in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1944. It is finished in trainer yellow overall with WW2 markings and is equipped as an instrument training aircraft.

    Great informative video. I remember these along with DH Devons at RAF Hendon in 1956/57 with the Metropolitan Communication Squadron.
