A little Ebay mystery....this Anson was sold to Afghanistan around 1948 and the Ebay description suggests Blackbushe was involved

Goodness!! Absolutely correct, YA-B.252 delivered to Afghan Air Force between June and October, 1948. At least a further ten Ansons went the same way during the period all taking a last look at the UK as they departed Blackbushe. An Ariana Afghan Airlines DC-4 YA-BAG visited Blackbushe on 19/02/1959.

Curious that there's no direct 'one-click' link between these 'Ebay hosted' images and the actual auction page should anyone wish to bid...you have to start from scratch and search out the item (if it hasn't already gone)! Are these Ansons mentioned in any of the published Blackbushe histories?
