A well-known photo of Hanno but it completes the eight-aircraft HP.42/HP.45 fleet in the AirHistory database. The lumbering giants could use austere airports such as the old Ottoman airfield at Samakh, although Imperial Airways later moved to Gaza and then to Lydda. Photo from: Library of Congress

'First regular airmail service to Australia'. Imperial Airways schedules were always complicated - the HP.45 flew to Karachi and an AW.15 Atalanta continued to Darwin. As there was too much demand for the inaugural flight, the public were fooled: Hengist actually carried mail for India while letters for Australia had been dispatched via the old route to Karachi which involved a train between Paris and Brindisi. Even when transported entirely by air, the mail still took almost two weeks from London to Sydney.
