	Handley Page Victor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Handley Page Victor was a British jet bomber aircraft, one of the 'V bombers' intended to carry Britain's nuclear arsenal.
		During the Borneo conflict of 1962-66, two Victor B Mk 1A bombers flew the Victor's only offensive mission.

	Handley Page HP.88 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Handley Page HP.88 was a British research aircraft, built to test the aerodynamics of the Handley Page Victor design and was essentially a scaled-down version of that aircraft.
		The HP.88 had the Victor's crescent wing and T-tail, and first flew on June 21 1951 at Carnaby near Bridlington.
		The aircraft had little time to gather useful information, but the loss of the aircraft was of little significance to the V-Bomber project; two prototype Victors were nearing completion by the time of the HP.88's first flight.

	The Handley-Page Victor
		The Victor was arguably the most unconventional of the three, at least in hindsight, but it proved very successful, persisting in service into the 1990s in the tanker role.
		In 1963, Victors were redeployed to Singapore in response to Indonesian hostility to Malaysia.
		Handley Page had conducted technical studies on the matter from 1967, but the company went under in 1969, and the contract for the upgrades was awarded to Hawker Siddeley in 1970.

	HANDLEY PAGE VICTOR - HISTORY
		Handley Page, after the success of their wartime Halifax bomber, soon looked at new designs for better bombers and a tail-less swept wing aircraft was one of their pet projects.
		Handley Page's test pilots had fun with their new aircraft - after test flights over the North Sea they would often 'forget' to tell Air Traffic they were coming back, which they did at maximum speed and altitude in a dead straight line for the UK.
		The cancelled Victors were now proving to be a costly mistake; the tanker force was at the edge of its capability and the K.1As were nearing the end of their useful life.

	HANDLEY PAGE
		Handley Page contributed a twin-engine monoplane bomber, the Hampden.
		At the height of Britain's bomber offensive, the Halifax comprised 40 percent of the strength of the RAF Bomber Command.
		However, the firm of Handley Page elected to remain independent, and it soon felt the consequences.

		This page last updated on 4th March 2004
		Handley Page were famous for their Halifax bomber of World War II and would go on to produce one of the most capable jet bombers of the postwar years, the Victor.
		A huge and graceful aircraft, with a curiously un-warlike air, the Victor, in common with many other postwar British aircraft would outlive its manufacturer.

		None had parachuted before never mind from a Victor first to go would be the Nav Plotter and as he looked out of the door air was disappearing into the engines at a great rate.
		Handley Page had been contacted and a team of engineers were on their way from Radlett to carry out the initial inspection with regard to the repair.

		These aircraft aided deployments from the UK to the Ascension Island staging post in the South Atlantic and further deployments south of attack, transport and maritime patrol aircraft.
		The most famous refueling missions were the "Operation Black Buck" sorties which involved Victor tankers refueling Avro Vulcan bombers to attack Argentine forces on the Falkland Islands.

	Handley-Page Victor B.2 by Bill Dye (Matchbox 1/72)

		First flown in 1954, the Victor was the third of the “V” bombers.
		After being out of service for some time, the Victor was converted to the K2 tanker configuration with reduced wing span.

		Additionally, Eric Voisard has convinced me that the early Bf 109s might have had a different wing airfoil than the later model aircraft - this is reflected now in the listings.
		Through another source came information in regard to the Douglas A-3 and Grumman Gulfstream II and lastly, a visitor to the page has provided me with information on all of the Monocoupe aircraft.
