Troy Smith Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hi Jerry there is an embed code AIRCRAFT OF THE ROYAL AIR FORCE, 1939-1945: VICKERS WELLINGTON.. © IWM (ATP 12360C) IWM Non Commercial License Quote Wellington C Mark IA, N2990 'NQ-D' "Duke of Cornwall", of No. 24 Squadron RAF, on the ground at Hendon, Middlesex. N2990 was one of a number of passenger transport conversions from bombers, which served with No. 24 Squadron in 1943 and 1944. The cabin windows have been removed, and the gun turrets replaced by turret-shaped fairings, suitably painted and fitted with dummy guns to deceive would-be attackers. though the embed codes gets the mid image replace the 'mid' with 'large' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelh Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Rather an optimistic idea. 'Deceiving would be attackers' with dummy guns. After the first pass the fighter pilot would think: 'This is my lucky day'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReccePhreak Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Darn! When you said "photo Wellington", I thought you were talking about a photo-recce version of the Wellington. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
