Re: Photos Royal Aircraft Factory Aircraft
BE2a no. 273 was flown to Montrose (Scotland) on 21 May 1913 by Capt. Longcroft allocated to 2 Sqn. but deleted 17 Jan. 1914; the Farman behind is HF20 no. 274 (3 Sqn.).The squadron left for Amiens on 13 Aug. 1914 but 274 had failed engine on take-off so apparently left behind ( 2/Lt. Fuller).
If the caption "Larkhill" is right they were presumably training.
