De Havilland (Sea) Devon, used as VIP transports by both RAF and FAA. Judging by the chap on the left, and the number, this one is probably Naval, so will move to Naval & Military.

I take issue with you there, judging by the colour scheme it is in RAF transport command colours so is more likely to be an RAF DH104 Devon, but I do accept your logic based on the uniform of the chap approaching the nose.

Quite correct. It seems she was of 207 Squadron. Never mind, being military its in the right album. . Wink The IWM have a photo of her in flight, but they havn't scanned it yet.
