The Air Ministry had converted 13 DH4A aircraft, at the behest of Mr Bonar Law, into passenger aircraft by remodelling the open observer's seat into an enclosed cabin which allowed two passenger seats face to face.

They operated with 86 [Communcations] Wing between London-Kenley and Paris-Buc they were then used by the commercial airlines. Aircraft Transport and Travel Limited (AT&T), launched the world's first daily international scheduled air service between London and Paris. That initial flight with Bill Lawford as pilot, a single-engined de Havilland DH4A biplane took off from Hounslow Heath on 25 August 1919.
