Regarding the Whitley photo

http://cgi.ebay.de/Foto-Flugzeug-Air...item3a596f1567

I wonder if this is the same Whitley that was photographed being lifted by crane up on to the harbour, that you posted a few weeks ago.

@ Larry, regarding #67, unfortunatly link is no more working... (at least for me) :( ... and still unable to upload photo?

@ Michal, #68 thank you for precisions. :)

Re: Which stories behind these photos?
 
I think the lesson for us is to upload the photos from eBay.de etc as and when they appear and post them on this forum (when we can) so that future searches of this forum will give meaningful comments to posted photos rather than dead links
