EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Heinkel He.111H 8471M (Werknummer 701152), a historic German military aircraft, on display at the Royal Air Force Museum in Hendon on 30 December 1991. The Heinkel He.111H, also known as the "Henschel He 111," was a versatile and prominent German aircraft used extensively during World War II. This particular model, 8471M, is a He.111H-23, which was produced towards the end of the war and featured several improvements over earlier versions. The Heinkel He.111 was a multi-engine transport and bomber aircraft, capable of carrying a large payload over long distances. Its distinctive twin-engine, high-wing configuration made it a formidable presence in the skies, and its versatility allowed it to be used in various roles, including maritime patrol, reconnaissance, and even as a glider tug. The end of the war saw the He.111's retirement from military service, and many were scrapped or sold for scrap. However, a few survivors, including 8471M, were preserved for historical purposes. This photograph provides a rare glimpse into the past, capturing the Heinkel He.111H in its final days as a museum exhibit, a testament to its historical significance in the annals of aviation history. The Heinkel He.111H 8471M (Werknummer 701152) is an essential addition to any aviation or military history collection, showcasing the ingenuity and innovation of German aircraft design during World War II. This photograph, taken from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique perspective on this iconic aircraft and the history it represents.
