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?

    It looks a bit like a monoplane version of the venerable Fairy Swordfish, doesn't it?

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

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

      Yeah, an easy lunch for an ME-109.
