New photos to me. Thanks.

A near-the-hangar silouette photo shows a BE 2c (distinctive exhaust pipes up in the air) with other aircraft.

How the British could find enough young men willing to fly this aircraft is a testimony to something.

Good spot with the exhausts however, I think it's a BE2e rather than a 2c as the latter had equal span wings and the aircraft in the photo appears to have shorter span lower wings.

The appealing romance of flight, the innocence of Edwardian youth and the desperation of the RFC!
