  It might be possible to identify the location from the hangars in this photo
  and the B-17 behind looks like General Koenig's 'Bir Hackeim' ,the only French Air Force B-17 which passed through India en-route Indo-China around September 1945

  I think the Stirling is at the very large American funded CBI support base at Dum Dum, Calcutta (Kolkata)....the distinctive hangar design shows up in this later photo of a USAF C-124 during the Korean war, 1953 upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/20/C-124_374TCW_...

Aeroplane on HIBERNIA (Brit.) (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• TVL1970 said:

  This is a photo of HMS Hibernia and a Short Improved S.27 biplane, likely taken in May 1912, when Hibernia was engaged in various test flights conducted by Commander Charles Samson (RN) flying the aircraft from a makeshift flight deck placed upon the forward portion of the ship. The deck was removed from Hibernia after the trials were completed. See: HMS Hibernia (1905) - Early Career
