One of the original batch of aircraft (J1936, Old Carthusian) went on to record two significant 'firsts'. On 13 December 1918 the bomber, flown by Major A.C.S. Maclaren and Captain Robert Halley, accompanied by Brig-General N.D.K. McEwanand Arnold Pickles as engineer, made the first ever 'through-flight' from England to India. Taking off from Britain the aircraft flew via Rome, Malta, Cairo, and Baghdad, finally reaching Karachi on 30 December.
