It has been suggested elsewhere that the Skymaster in post #99 is at RAF Northolt photographed from the northeast corner looking southwest….the only thing that casts doubt for me is the presence of a Baltimore but perhaps 1 or 2 made it to the UK by 1945. It looks like a VIP is departing and a parade of airmen have seen him off. Churchill’s EW999 had no nose code and KL980 in which Eden went to Potsdam had nose code HB, I don’t have a serial for ‘HA’. Skymasters KL979 and KL982 are candidates.
