Design and development

Henderson.[1]
The second aircraft was a Gadfly II G-AARJ[3] which first flew in August 1929 and was exported to Canada, where it was damaged beyond repair at Kitchener, Ontario, on 25 August 1931.[1] The final aircraft was Gadfly III G-AARK[4] which was the same as the Gadfly II but fitted with a Шаблон:Convert Salmson A.D.9 radial engine.[1] It was withdrawn from use in 1930.[1] The first aircraft G-AAEY was last based at Wolverhampton when it was scrapped in June 1934.[1]
