Регистрационный номер: J8100 D.H.9As lined up in front of the hangars at No.4 Flying Training School at Abu Sueir, Egypt. Most have their rear cockpits without gun-rings for flying training tasks but J8100 in the foreground was presumably used for gunnery training.

Регистрационный номер: K8104 Hectors of No. 612 Squadron in camouflage during the Munich crisis in the autumn of 1938. K8104 in the foreground had a short life with the squadron as it was damaged beyond repair when its engine cut on take-off from Dyce on 28 May 1939. At least the serial remained legible when the camouflage paint was hurriedly splashed on, unlike some other squadrons' handiwork.
