I'm fairly sure that it was Dodge Bailey flying the SE5a on Sunday.

Does anyone know the story behind the markings (93 RAF), or the a/c history?
'The SE5 File', Sturtivant, Page, has F904 as having been assigned to 84 RAF, with the CO, Mjr CEM Pickthorn, claiming a DVII with it the day before the Armistice. After the war, it moved on to civvy street as G-EBIA. Is this one a replica, or is it G-EBIA?
