Hi Roddy,

Re. the Oxford, see Keith W´s web site: http://www.oldcmp.net/Oxford.html

There´s the remains of a T16 carrier at Belfield´s museum:

I´ve read some unverified rumours T16´s were supplied to Australia, but all of this has to be substantiated first.

HTH,

Some UK Carriers must have made it here at some point because I know of at least one personally, so there must be more. Actually I think a few in australia get mention on these forums.

The Scout Carrier that turned up on this forum about amonth back intrigues me. What is the story around that one. Did it come direct from the U.K pre war, as a pattern or trial vehicle? Have any other scout carriers survived?
