Photo Comment

Moved from the RAF Museum, Cosford Collection where I had first seen this beauty, to the Bomber Command Hall at Hendon. The SNAKE suffix to the serial indicated that the aircraft was on delivery to the RAF in South East Asia and was not to be kept in the Middle East. The nose carries a plaque to commemorate the fact that the aircraft was presented by the Indian Air Force.
