Vickers Windsor

The Vickers Windsor was a Second World War British four-engine heavy bomber designed by Barnes Wallis and R.K. Pierson at Vickers-Armstrongs.

I think he possibly meant the Vickers Windsor, a type which thoroughly deserved the outcome that it got! __________________ http://www.abpic.co.uk/search.php?q=...1
Post 2771 looks to be the Vickers Windsor which lost the contract to the Short Sterling Yes and no.2

Made by Vickers-Armstrongs.

This became the Vickers Windsor, which was more capable than the Halifax and Lancaster, and more suited to longer range operations overseas.3
