Armstrong Whitworth Whitley Mk. VII Coastal Command

15.9k Charlie2613  7.2 years ago

VTOL for flaps. 1 and trim for Bombay. This was a really challenging build but fun and nice to fly, as underpowered and slow as the real thing. The Whitley was one of three main bombers to enter service at the start of the war for the RAF, deemed obselete from the start but continued in production throughout, this varient with radar pilons to detect surfaced U-boats in Coastal Command colours
