It has four de Havilland Gipsy Queen 30 Mark 2 engines, each of 250 b.h.p., driving de Havilland two-blade, variable-pitch, non-feathering propellers. An air of spaciousness is created by the unusually large windows and the generous width of the gangway. The cabin has a head-room of 5 ft. 8| in. throughout its length. JLLAND ENTERPRISE
