if i may add – both in India…

Warbird longevity in India was much assured – due to the IAF’s preservation policy and maintainence of decoys.

But in Pakistan, the survivability of the warbirds from early 50s has been bad if not worse. Tempests, Furies, Attackers, Halifaxes – not one example of any of them survive. somebody made good money scrapping them :D.

France also used a number of Halifaxes in North Africa post war. They even flew supply missions to Madagascar and possibly Vietnam of all places. So maybe there’s one or two remains in the ex-French Colonies.

beverley did someone say beverley where? there is only one left in the world that would be a real find if we found another

beverley? did someone say beverley? where? there is only one left in the entire world that would be a real find to have another we can only dream send me fotos!

Hey, it’s nice to dream that maybe, just maybe there could be undiscovered aviation gems around the world, in relatively good condition in the same styleee as the ex-Soviet Union finds.

And as for Photoshop tomfoolery….no idea what you’re talking about. They are bona-fida pics of real aircraft, honest gov. Keep your eyes peeled, maybe some more of my holiday snaps contain other aeronautical treasures ; -)

Do you mean the Beverley that crash landed in Egypt on its way to Port Said, and ended up becoming part of a camel sanctuary on the outskirts of Alexandria? :diablo:

Lol, no. It’s a genuine enquiry

Although, I did take this interesting pic whilst on holiday in a secret location, couldn’t possibly say which country it was in.

And the Lord said unto 91 Regal “Thou shalt not say things like that to mantog, for thou wilst only give him ammunition”. And 91Regal didst say this, and Lo! mantog didst play silly beggars with Photoshop.

(another bf who cannot resist a feedline!)

why wast time going after something like this or rumor chasing as it were. There are many halifaxes to be discovered in lakes etc.

All PAF Halifaxes have been scrapped. – they had about half a dozen to start with? I believe atleast one of them crash landed, rest mayhave been wfu

No, but seriously, I was wondering if these exported Halibags were all scrapped or are there any remains?

could they be loitering around somewhere in a deserted scrapyard, unloved, unwanted and awaiting discovery?!

….is this the prelude to another of your suspect images, mantog?
