Another cool aircraft I have never heard of.


Vickers Wellesley Mk. I. “Vickers Wellesley Mk I of No. 47 Squadron RAF in flight over the mountains of Eritrea, 1941.”

I wonder if any of these are left flying?

    1. Yeah, and I like the double open cockpits as well.

    2. I wouldn't want to have to hold off an ME-109 with that tail gun...

    3. Yeah, an easy lunch for an ME-109.
