Avro Anson C19 Military Transport Aircraft

The Avro Anson was originally designed as a maritime reconnaissance aircraft and was named in honour of admiral George Anson (First Lord of the Admiralty 1757–1762) it was soon apparent that the aircraft was obsolete at the outbreak of WW2 and the Anson was found a new role as a multi-engined trainer. Towards the end of WW2 264 Avro Anson C-19 transport and communications aircraft were produced for the RAF, they had a strengthened metal wing structure to increase the airframes load ability and remained in production until 1947.
