Hi all,
Can anyone out there offer any info as to the type of aircraft shown in the photo? Looks to be a WW2 vintage twin of some description.
Cheers, Chumpy.

In the words of Tony Blair – “Am I Bothared”.

A RAF test pilot on flying the Botha stated
” The Botha cockpit is almost impossible to get into, it should be made impossible to get into”. 😉

Definitely a Botha.
Just look at those worried eyes!
Thanks for the info, is the flare pistol standard fit…or a bit of pilot bravado!?
