Royal Air Force Short Stirling B Mk. III
Royal Air Force Short Stirling B Mk.III. This very leaky Stirling is flying with the tail-wheels extended, probably due to the notoriously unreliable electric retraction mechanism. Also visible are the individual bomb bays, which severely limited its usefulness, in the bombing role, when the large cookie bombs and widespread use of 1, 000 lbers came on the scene. Date: circa 1942
