As per usual Herb, these wiki-style links (with the enclosures) Opera
(masked) and Firefox just will not interpret.. bugger!
However as per (also) I load the "bsa_airborne_bicycles" to
www.dogpile.com and up comes the page as the third link listed!
What a fascinating piece of History, Herb.
I had the background of BSA coming out of the WWII product but always
thought it was just an amalgam of Enfield, HRD and AJS
m'cycles. I will get back and read this up.. thanks very much for the
work getting this link.
And the trademark will come in very handy to get the shape of the
carbines right.. so, again.. thanks.
cheerio
