Longhorn N5059 was built by Brush E.E. Co. Ltd. at Loughborough and delivered to CSD White City, it was transferred to AAP RNAS Killingholme on 24th February 1917 and later to RNAS Redcar on 22nd April 1917. It sustained damage at Redcar in May 1917 (detailed above) but was repaired only to suffer a second accident (detailed on this website). It is likely that it wasn't repaired after this accident.
