"Joseph Christiaens a visiting Belgian, gave demonstrations and sold at least one aircraft, a Bristol Box Kite No. 28, to the redoubtable Dr. John Weston.  Some sources, including the Friend of 24 August 1911, say he purchased three Bristol biplanes.  The third aircraft could have been in the form of spares, and the second was possibly No.27."
