K3163 visited Nigeria together with K3611. The trees on the far left are strikingly similar to those in photo 634066, confirming this is Apapa airport in Lagos, then being reclaimed from a swamp. The serial is painted as KR3163, which seems to indicate that this is a rebuilt Victoria. This airframe also appears in photo 633832, in which it looks much the same.

The airport at Kano had opened in 1936 and Apapa aerodrome was being reclaimed from a swamp. The second Valentia is K3163 / N. Photo by: Edward Duckworth / Northwestern University Libraries, Illinois

Location is not 100% certain, so confirmation is appreciated. The Canberra was written off in February 1982 when it suffered a double flame out on take off from RAF Akrotiri (Cyprus). Photographer unknown

This is RAF Heliopolis in Cairo - not the same airfield as Almaza (HEAZ). Some of the buildings look more modern than the aircraft, but then the Valentia looked outdated from the outset. Nevertheless, the type served well into WWII, sometimes still uncamouflaged. The second machine, K3605, even flew a bombing sortie against Italian troops at Sidi Barrani, Egypt in November 1940. The third, K3163, has its serial painted as KR3163, being a rebuilt Victoria. These are No 216 Sqn aircraft.
