FS2004 Percival Vega Gull G-AFEA. A repaint for Keith Paine's Percival Vega Gull. G-AFEA c/n K84 was delivered to Alex Henshaw in January 1938. He used the aircraft to fly with his father to Africa to identify suitable landing grounds for his intended record flight in his Mew Gull G-AEXF. He sold the Vega Gull to Gloster Aircraft Ltd in January 1940. Glosters used it as a hack during WWII so the aircraft was not impressed by the RAF. Glosters sold G-AFEA in 1946 and two other owners operated the aircraft until sold to USA in September 1952. Repaint by Peter Watkins.
