AVRO TRAINING LANDPLANE Type 504N.

THE AVRO 'Lynx" Dual Control Training Machine represents a marked advance on the world famous AVRO 504 K in that the magnificent flying qualities of the latter machine have been amplified by additional . power and by constructional improvements, some of which are mentioned below. The AVRO "Lynx" is the MOST UP TODATE TRAINING MACHINE IN THE WORLD.

In place of a rotary engine a Siddeley Lynx Radial Air Cooledengine is fitted. Petrol consumption at full power is approximately 12 gallons per hour. An important feature, However, is that the machine can fly with the throttle only just open and a satisfactory cruising speed can be maintained at about quarter throttle: with a petrol consumption of not more than 7 gallons per hour.

An adjustable Tail Plane for dual control is fitted . Centre Section Plane and Wing Roots allow a much greater forward and upward vision for both pilot and pupil. New shapeailerons lighten and harmonise the lateral control with the elevator and rudder controls.

Either a land or sea undercarriage can be fitted.

The Standard AVRO 504 N carries pilot and pupil. It can, however, be adapted as a light commercial machine to carrypilot and two passengers.
