[Mechanics, Lockheed Hudson AT-18A, Pepperell Manufacturing Company]

    Lockheed Model 14. Supplied to the RAF as the "Hudson," known within the AAF as an A-28, A-29 or AT-18.
  • SMU Libraries Digital Collections said:
    Gerry Asher Thank you very much for your information! Based on what you have given us, we were able to discover that the aircraft in the photograph is a Lockheed AT-18A-LO Hudson (L-414), serial number 42-055552. While most of the A-28 and A-29 models were split between the RAF and the USAF, based on our information, this is a model AT-18A which seems to have been used exclusively by the USAF for navigational training. Only 83 of this aircraft model were ever built.

    Our company (Demex) were the subcontractors responsible for the haulage and disposal of the spoil generated by the tunnel excavations. We were also the demolition contractors for the old Post Office workshops which stood on the exact spot of the tunnel pictured above. You can just see part of the demolition work about halfway up the right-hand side of the photo
