World War 2 Halifax aircraft in Worcester

I’m almost certain that it was mid war when I saw the Halifax in Walsall. There was a Boston placed in front of it. The cockpit canopy of that was open for viewing of the cockpit from a platform alongside.
Search as I may I can’t find any report of that display although there was a Walsall ” Wings for Victory” week in April 1943. I assume the display was part of that.

No. Mrs Moggy doesn’t always get to go on his travels! 😀

…Unless it was Mrs Moggy, keeping an eye on you?

I expect CCTV caught you at some point, but surely you are not such a renowned personality that the paparazzi follow you around…

Friday the thirteenth was displayed in public.

Oxford Street, London, June – September 1945…

The other thread reminded me that when in Worcester recently I went to a antique shop and there was an oil painting of a Halifax on public display in the town.

I’m just idly wondering if anybody has photographs of this event, or any other information.

(Think Friday 13th was in London. Seem to recall something about that being a connection between the nose art and its then location)

Friday the thirteenth was displayed in public.

I wonder if this is the same one which was displayed in Walsall in that year ? I remember going over it. I didn’t go inside – I think it must have been a walkway over a wing.

A Halifax I or II was displayed in the town during the Wings for Victory week in 1943.

Or see the oil painting 🙂
