Radlett, Hertfordshire.

Shots of a prototype Handley Page H.P. 42 'Hannibal' biplane airliner. It is for use by Imperial Airways. Chocks are removed from the wheels. The plane moves off along the airfield.

Shots of the large four engined aeroplane flying overhead. Nice shots as it comes in to land after maiden flight.

Mr Handley-Page stands with a small group of dignitaries and says a few words about the aircraft. He thanks the designer and the test pilots.

N.B. Misidentified in tape box as 30/56 - it is part of 30/50.
