This Handley Page O/400 heavy bomber, ex J2252, was fitted with ten passenger seats without windows in 1919 and flown to Norway via Holland and Denmark. It drew large crowds and over 100 people made a flight during demonstrations at Kjeller army airfield. Note the irregular lettering and the roundel shining through the civilian paint.
