Photo Comment

This Hudson stood as a memorial from 1967 to 1989 to the North Atlantic aircraft ferry pilots during World War II. The original T9422, flown by famed RAF pilot/navigator Don Bennett, led the first formation of aircraft to be delivered to the UK by air. It was later lost in an accident in Wales. Deterioration due to weather and vandalism saw the memorial aircraft moved to the North Atlantic Aviation Museum in Gander.
