The Avro Anson is a British twin-engined, multi-role aircraft. It was built in large numbers and served in the Royal Air Force (RAF), Fleet Air Arm (FAA), Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and numerous other air forces before, during, and after the Second World War. It is most famous for its role as a training aircraft in the RAF and Commonwealth air forces.
Originally conceived for maritime patrol and coastal reconnaissance, by the outbreak of WW2 the Avro Anson was already obsolete, a testament to the speed of aviation development in the latter half of the 1930s. By the outbreak of hostilities it was mostly used as a training aircraft, a role in which it would excel. It was a major unit in the Commonwealth Air Training Plan, and would also be used after the war in varying civilian and military roles.

Producing these videos is a hobby of mine. I have a passion for history, and personally own a large collection of books, journals and other texts, and endeavor to do as much research as possible. However if there are any mistakes, please don't hesitate to reach out and correct anything :)
