Handley Page Halifax Bomber
Handley Page Halifax
Handley Page Halifax examines the service career and technical evolution of one of the mainstay heavy bombers of World War Two.
The four‑engined Halifax flew more than 82,000 operations during the global conflict – from its maiden flight on October 25, 1939 and service entry in November 1940, through its early teething problems to later refinements that earned crew loyalty and extended its duties beyond strategic bombing to include glider‑towing, paratroop drops, maritime patrol and post‑war transport.
Richly illustrated with period photos, performance data, variant guides, squadron histories and restoration updates on surviving airframes.
It offers an immersive tribute to a workhorse of RAF Bomber Command and Commonwealth air forces.
