Avro 642 Eighteen information


Eighteen
Avro 642 (twin engine version, revised nose)
Role Airliner
Manufacturer Avro
First flight 1934
Introduction 6 April 1934
Number built 2
Developed from Avro 618 Ten

The Avro 642 Eighteen was a 1930s British monoplane airliner. Only two were built — one twin-engined and the other four-engined.[1][2] The original had a circular partially glazed nose, but this was changed to a more traditional one. It used the wing of the Avro 618 Ten, which was a license produced Fokker V.II.

The twin was used until it was destroyed during WW2, in early 1942. The four engine model was used in British India until 1940.
