This is RAF Heliopolis in Cairo - not the same airfield as Almaza (HEAZ). Some of the buildings look more modern than the aircraft, but then the Valentia looked outdated from the outset. Nevertheless, the type served well into WWII, sometimes still uncamouflaged. The second machine, K3605, even flew a bombing sortie against Italian troops at Sidi Barrani, Egypt in November 1940. The third, K3163, has its serial painted as KR3163, being a rebuilt Victoria. These are No 216 Sqn aircraft.

This is RAF Heliopolis in Cairo - not the same airfield as Almaza (HEAZ). Some of the buildings look more modern than the aircraft, but then the Valentia looked outdated from the outset. Nevertheless, the type served well into WWII, sometimes still uncamouflaged. The second machine, K3605, even flew a bombing sortie against Italian troops at Sidi Barrani, Egypt in November 1940. The third, K3163, has its serial painted as KR3163, being a rebuilt Victoria. These are No 216 Sqn aircraft.

This picture is in one of my late dad's log books when he was a pilot on 64 Sqn. He is flying the Javelin FAW9 XH707 / F over Malaysia with a 45 Sqn Canberra B15 and a 20 Sqn Hunter FGA9 coded A. It was also used as a front cover from the RAF publication 'Air Clues' and has the following caption. FAR EAST TRIO. Three 'RAF types' of the Far East Air Force are seen on a special formation flight along the Malaysian coast. They are a Javelin of No 64 Squadron, whose duties at Tengah have been taken over by the Mk 6 Lightnings of No 74 Sqn ; a Canberra of No 45 Sqn ; and a Hunter of No 20 Sqn.
