XR371 (cn SH1825) The Belfast is a long-range, strategic transport aircraft, designed in February 1959. Its first flight was in January 1964. Only ten of the originally ordered thirty Belfasts were built, all for the RAF. It's a huge aircraft at 41m long with a wing span of 48m, weighing 56 tons empty and more than double that fully loaded. It could carry 150 fully-equipped troops or a Chieftain tank or two Wessex helicopters. On display in the Cold War hangar at the RAF Museum, Cosford (Canon 50D + Sigma 10-20 EX DC HSM) |
