Apologies to anybody who has read the same query on other forums but this question has bugged me for more than 25 years?
During the days of the long gone “Luton Flying Club” pub at the airport (c.1990) there was a photo displayed in the foyer showing an aerial view of Luton airport.
The photo must have dated from the late 1940s as there was at least one high wing Hunting twin in view (a Prince?)
What really caught my eye was a derelict fuselage pod in the background. This was either a Hampden or Hereford. Can anyone confirm which aircraft was involved and give any clue to its history / fate?
