Handley Page O/100



Handley Page O/100 heavy bombers at a Dunkirk area field in 1918. The twin engine 100 foot-wingspan bombers were Britain's first heavy bomber and were mostly used for night bombing. They were replaced by the Vickers Vimy at the end of the war. Interesting to think that powered flight was only about twenty years old at this point, about the age of most of the crewmembers.
