Description: Oxford Diecast History of Flight 72AO003 Airspeed Oxford Mk I Diecast Model Imperial War Museum, V3888/G-AHTW, Duxford, England 1:72 Scale Length WidthAirspeed Oxford Mk I 5.75" 8.75" The Airspeed AS.10 Oxford is a twin-engine monoplane aircraft developed and manufactured by Airspeed. It saw widespread use for training British Commonwealth aircrews in navigation, radio-operating, bombing and gunnery roles throughout the Second World War. The Oxford was developed by Airspeed during the 1930s in response to a requirement for a capable trainer aircraft that conformed with Specification T.23/36, which had been issued by the British Air Ministry. Its basic design is derived from the company's earlier AS.6 Envoy, a commercial passenger aircraft. Performing its maiden flight on 19 June 1937, it was rapidly put into production as part of a rapid expansion of the Royal Air Force (RAF) in anticipation of a large-scale conflict. Following the end of the conflict, the Oxford continued to achieve export sales for some time, equipping the newly formed air forces of Egypt, India, Israel, and Yugoslavia. It was considered to be a capable trainer aircraft throughout the conflict, as well as being used a general-purpose type. A large number of Oxfords have been preserved on static display. Airspeed Oxford Mk I Designed to meet a British Air Ministry requirement for a twin-engined trainer, the AS.10 Oxford was first flown on June 19th, 1937. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
