De Havilland DH9 PD

Originally developed as a bomber for Britain's Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force the DH9 proved something of a failure due to design issues. This particular model however enjoys some fame as the first single engined aircraft to fly the England to Australia route in 1920. The aircraft stands in the ANZAC Hall of the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, national capital of Australia.
