  1. Bristol Britannia C.1, seen at Cotswold Airport (former RAF Kemble) The Britannia was an elegant, long-haul turboprop transport. It saw both civil and military use, and bridged the gap between piston-engined airliners and the first generation jet transports. Seen here preserved in the colours of RAF Transport Command.#RAF #RoyalAirForce #BristolBritannia #Bristol #CotswoldAirport #Cotswolds #RAFKemble #avgeek #airtransport #airliner #turboprop #RAFTransportCommand #aircraft #aircraftphotography #photography

  6. Fieseler Fi156 Storch The Fieseler Storch was one of the most famous short take and landing aircraft aircraft of WW2. It saw widespread action in almost every theatre of war as an army co-operation and liasion machine. This particular example was photographed at the Shuttleworth Trust's Old Warden Airfield, but is now in Norway. Postwar production contiued in Czechoslovakia, France and Romania #ShuttleworthTrust #OldWarden #Fieseler #photography #aircraftphotography #Storch #avgeek #aircraft #Czechoslovakia #France #Romania #ww2history #WW2 #history

  11. Westland Lysander III (SD), Shuttleworth Trust Collection The Lysander was originally designed as an 'army co-operation' aircraft, meaning that it would work with artillery, act as short range transport, and even undertake light attack missions. Indeed a Lysander was the first RAF aircraft to shoot down one of the Luftwaffe machines on the Western front - no less than an He 111 bomber! However, it quickly become obsolescent in its designed role, but found undying fame, as the (SD) designation, meaning Special Duties, reveals. It shuttled agents and resistance fighters to and from small fields in Occupied Europe during WW2. It could carry up to 4 persons in the rear cockpit. This fine flying example is seen at the Shuttleworth Trust's airfield at Old Warden, UK #aircraft #WW2 #aircraftphotography #photography #shuttleworthcollection #avgeek #aviationlovers #secretagent

  17. DH98 Mosquito FB.VI This fine restoration is on display at the De Havilland Aircraft Museum, at Salisbury Hall, London Colney. The heavy armament of the type is shown here, with the 4 x 303" Browning machine guns and the 4 x 20mm Hispano cannon demonstrating the fearsome punch of this WW2 fighter-bomber. DHAM also has two other Mosquitoes on display. The People's Mosquito is currently building an FB.VI to flight status; see www.peoplesmosquito.org.uk #DHAM #dehavilland #DeHavillandAircraftMuseum #WW2 #fighterbomber #RAF #RoyalAirForce #LondonColney #UK #England #museum #aircraft #avgeek #aircraftphotography #photography #ThePeoplesMosquito #history #aviation #aircraftrestoration

  22. RB-25 Mitchell Shown here at the New England Airshow at Westover ARB, Massacusetts, this Mitchell was just the FOURTH built of this iconic WW2 type. In a way, it was a wonder that this aircraft survived; mainly, this was because it was adopted as the personal transport of USAAC General H. H. 'Hap' Arnold. Hence the nose art, 'Miss Hap' ! This Mitchell's type designation, RB-, doesn't mean that it was intended for reconnaissance duties, it refers to a 'Restricted' rating, which means it was not up to combat standards. #B25 #Mitchell #USAAC #WW2 #General #HHHapArnold #HapArnold #airshow #avgeek #Massachusetts #USA #UnitedStates #aircraft #noseart #photography #aircraftphotography #Westover #ARB #AirReserveBase #MissHap

  32. The De Havilland Heron could be described as a stretched, four-engined 'big brother' of the DH Dove. They were used as 'feeder liners' between hub airports and as corporate transports.
