Key: Additions Deletions
In 1953 the Belgian government ordered 12 Percival Pembroke's as a replacement for the ageing Avro Anson.
The aircraft was used for short-range transport and liaison flights.
Between 1956 and 1957 several brand-new Pembrokes were stored at Wevelgem awaiting a future detachment to the Belgian Congo, which eventually never happened.
A number of Pembrokes were also used for the benefit of the National Geographical Institute that used the aerial photographs to produce very details maps of the country.
In 1978 the Pembrokes were struck of charge after their replacement the Swearingen Merlin III had become operational.
All but two Pembrokes were sold to the rather dark company Air America (not to be confused with the CIA-supported Air America that was operational in South-East Asia), which was owned by a Belgian drugsdealer.
