  I had enjoyed flights to Dublin and Cork, in different aircraft. During some time off in Dublin, almost three decades ago, I asked the Irish Aviation Authority about converting my Airline Transport Pilot Licence to an Irish equivalent with the intention of immigrating. I was advised not to bother.

  This appears to be a Royal Aircraft Factory R.E.8. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Aircraft_Factory_R.E.8 See correct identification below.

• Provincial Archives of Alberta said:

  Thank you!

• yavor.dinkov said:

  Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2e. One possibility is A2968 built by British and Colonial (Bristol).

• TVL1970 said:

  yavor.dinkov Thank you for the correction. This one was a real head scratcher for me.

• Provincial Archives of Alberta said:

  Thanks for the help! Those planes do appear very similar.
