Aircraft Pics - Egypt 1945 1/6

Hi,
My father took a number of pictures while is was in the Middle East with the RAF in 1945-47. Attached are the first ten of approximately 60 that I thought you may be interested in viewing. Please feel free the add any comments, corrections, or suggestions - any extra information on the Aircraft themselves would be most helpful.

Yours
