Handley Page Hampden

Unquestionably one of the most distinctive British aircraft of the Second World War, the Hampden was an impressively manoeuvrable medium bomber which saw extensive service during the early stages of the war, with its narrow 3ft-wide fuselage earning it the nickname of the 'Flying Suitcase'. It was used on the RAF's first bombing raid against Berlin in August 1940.
