A more fortunate Handley Page O/400, C9639. This aircraft was the fourth Handley Page-built production O/400, from the initial batch of 150.

Personnel from Tern Hill pose nonchalantly with the remains of Handley Page O/400 D9687.

More unhappy Handley Pages: the identity of the O/400 is unknown, although other photographs of the same crash show that it bore night-bombing markings.

Another view of the wreckage of D9687, one of a batch of O/400s ordered from Clayton & Shuttleworth of Lincoln in January 1918. The “eggbox” bomb bay, which could accommodate up to 16 112lb bombs, is clearly seen. The arrow-shaped hole in the fuselage underside aft of the wings is a gun position, from which a single Lewis fired downwards and backwards.

One of the types flown by Mr Jones was the F.E.2b; the example, D9163, bore night markings and was used for bomb-aiming training.
