Bob Cotsford Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 41 minutes ago, maurice northcott said: Handley Page Halifax MkI or II rather than the MkIII which is what most of us think of as a Halifax. Earlier marks had the front turret, inline engines and triangular fins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatMc Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Probably taken somewhere in the Middle East as the Halifax was the only RAF heavy based there, according to the book this attached image is from. As Bob, says looks like a MkI or II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Acland Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 Thanks for clearing this up for me. I always associated the Halifax with radial engines. Live and learn. Richard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
