Here's an odd one (I've always thought anyway it was a bit odd)

Handley Page V/1500!

Truly odd

:D Yup - I just never understood the folding wings? It was long range bomber - suppose it meant you could use smaller hangers, but still?

Raptor1 06-19-08 01:25 PM

Me neither, I always assumed it's to save hanger space too (Think about it, the wingspan was enormous at them time at 38m)

Maybe they were just foreshadowing the coming of HMS Furious and the Aircraft Carrier

I knew it was the TSR.2 the moment I saw the pic.
