Handley Page H.P.51: Like the Bristol machine, the Handley Page H.P.51 is a high-wing monoplane. As a troop carrier it has accommodation for thirty men, while as an ambulance it will take ten stretchers. The machine can also be used for transporting fuel. It then carries three petrol tanks of 173 gallons each. The tapered monoplane wing is fitted with wing-tip slots and slotted trailing-edge flaps. The wing span is 90 ft. and the overall length 78 ft. 4 in. The two engines are Siddeley "Tiger VI," of 760-810 h.p. each.
