Aircraft development:
The Avro 621 Tutor was designed in 1929 by Roy Chadwick as a replacement for the Avro 504N. It was of welded tube construction, based on Fokker practice, with fabric covering. With ailerons on all wings and a variable incidence tailplane it had good handling and was an ideal aerobatic aircraft. The initial aircraft were powered by the 155hp Armstrong-Siddeley Mongoose 5 cylinder radial.
After pre-service trials at Gosport and No3 FTS at Grantham the specification was improved and the Tutor was ordered for the RAF with the alternative Armstrong-Siddeley Lynx IV or IVC engine of 215hp.
Production ended in May 1936 after completion of the 795th aircraft.
Service history:
Tutors replaced Avro 504N's at the Central Flying School and between 1933 and 1936 the CFS display team of six Tutors with red and white stripes on the upper surfaces of the top wings was one of the main attractions at Hendon displays.
The Tutor also served with the RAF College Cranwell, No 3 FTS at Grantham and No 5 FTS at Sealand. 15 seaplane Tutors were manufactured for the seaplane flight at Calshot.
3 Tutors survived the war: K6195, K3363 and K3215, but by 1949 K3215 was the only surviving example.
This Plane: K3215
This is one of the main production batch; used by the RAF College Cranwell and Central Flying School and then as a communications aircraft. It was 'demobbed' in December 1946 and in February 1947 was restored to the civil register, as G-AHSA, to become part of the Darlington and district Aero club fleet. It was later owned by W/Cdr Heywood at Burnaston, Derby and suffered crankshaft failure when taking part in the film 'Reach for the sky'. It was then bought by the Shuttleworth collection. The engine was rebuilt by Armstrong-Siddeley at Coventry from the best parts of 3 non-working units.
In 1979 major engine problems resulted in the aircraft being grounded. A world wide search failed to produce a suitable replacement engine so the existing Lynx was painstakingly rebuilt by a senior engineer. The cylinders were sent to the USA to be refurbished. Completely recovered in 2005-6 and now painted in CFS Aerobatic team colours.
