This is a Halifax V Series I (Special) used for what were euphemistically called 'Special Duties', agent dropping etc, fitted with Rotol four bladed props. There weren't many with 4 bladed props, but they were around.

This is a cracking photo of the bomb bay and illustrates perfectly why odd-shaped and sized bombs were a difficult squeeze in the Hali's bomb bay. Note the configuration of the doors and the door actuators protruding into the bay itself. Note that the big door is folded inside the bay, with the narrower outer door outside the bay. Needless complication. You can also see the wing bays are open, too.

Halifax "Waltzing Matilda"

Hi all, Does anyone of you on this board have a photograph (or plural) of the Halifax that was flown to Oz by Capt Wikner after the war and later scrapped? I believe it was put on a dump before being scrapped. Thanks in advance. Cheers Cees

The first civilian conversion [of a Halifax] was of the Halifax BIII, NR169 Waltzing Matilda, ex 466 (RAAF) Squadron. This aircraft was bought by G. N. Wickner, a wartime ferry pilot with the Air Transport Auxiliary, and converted by Handley Page to carry 15 passengers. Carrying the civil registration G-AGXA, the Halifax was flown to Australia in June 1946, piloted by Wickner and carrying 15 other Australians who were returning home. For a short period this machine flew in Australia as VH-BDT.
