The machine which has the most spectacular performance the Bristol Blenheim twin-engined medium-bomber. Its top speed at the operational height of 14.000ft is 279 miles an hour. At a height of 20,000ft. the best speed is 274.5 miles an hour, and though the power falls off a little sharply at greater heights, the machine is still able to climb at the rate of 100ft. a minute up a height of 30.- 000ft. This performance is ob- tained on the power of two Bristol Mercury (825 h.p.) engines, with an aeroplane of a loaded weight of "11.77616 Its range with the -ordinary bomb load is about 1,000

A still more remarkable medium bomber. in view of the engine- power, is the Fairey Battle. Its †top, speed at a height of 15,000ft. is 267 miles an hour, its loaded weight is 10.7751b., and its range about 1,000 miles. In this ma- chine a Rolls-Royce Merlin (1,050 h.p.) engine is used and the ser- vice celling obtained with it is 28,000ft. At the other end of the

scale is the Armstrong Whitworth Whitley heavy bomber, which, with two Armstrong Siddeley (800 h.p.) engines, has a maximum speed of 192 miles an hour, a range of 1,005 miles, and a service ceiling of 19.- oport. Its useful load amounts to 8,8001b.
