Re: Blenheim mk.1(F): winggun and gunpack
Amazing how many books you can stack on top of a sturdy scanner!
Here's the photo of the twin 20mm Hispano cannon Blenheim.
This is guess-work on my part, but I think this photo (from Roy C Nesbit's book Coastal Command in Action 1939-1945, p32, Ref: AIR 15/560) is of a Blenheim Mk.I, based on the shallow depth of the gun-pack. Pictures of the Blenheim Mk.IVf's show a deeper gun-pack, required due to the deeper chin of the long-nose Blenheims. Major leap of faith, but this is possibly L6787 involved in the twin 20mm cannon trials at Martlesham Heath A&AEE.
