THE HANDLEY PAGE H.P. 38: This machine, produced two years ago, is still surrounded with a certain amount of secrecy. It is a night bomber with high performance, and the arrangement of the fuselage and engines is such as to provide monoplane view while retaining biplane manoeuvrability. Wing span 75 ft. Gross weight 15,600 lb. The H.P. 38 will be seen at Hendon on June 25.

Also designed to Specification B.19/27, the Handley Page Heyford was the last of the RAF’s biplane heavy bombers, and entered service with No 99 Sqn in November 1933. Despite being capable of uplifting a meaningful bomb-load of some 3,500lb (1,585kg), the Heyford (along with the Hendon) was discounted as “operationally useless”.
