There were two prototypes put under construction the first is the one noted above with a Green D.4 in line and the second with an A.B.C. engine which was not delivered in time so that prototype was abandoned. The Type G had a totally enclosed cabin and was entered into 1912 British Military Airplane Competition where it failed to win but Avro did receive a £100. The Type G was the first aeroplane to survive a spin and to have that recovery witnessed.
