Westland Limousine I K-126

Ed Coates wrote:

This Westland Aircraft Ltd image is the only one I have of a "K-" registered machine. This series was allotted temporarily to new aircraft in 1919. K-126, the prototype, became G-EAFO shortly afterwards. Production of the Limousine appears to have been limited to seven aircraft, including the prototype seen above. The six production machines were known as Limousine IIs. One of these (G-EAMV) went to Newfoundland with Australian adventurer/aviator Sidney Cotton. K-126 (G-EAFO) was destroyed in a spectacular crash at R.A.F. Netheravon when it was struck by a Fairey Fawn whilst the latter was taking off.
