Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Valentia (within the company known as the Type 264) was a British biplane cargo aircraft built by Vickers for the Royal Air Force. The majority built were conversions of the early Vickers Victoria.While the Napier Lion-powered Victoria served successfully with the RAF as a bomber transport, by 1932, the Lion engine was becoming obsolete and it was clear that it could use more power. It was therefore decided to re-engine the aircraft with more powerful Bristol Pegasus engines. It was decided to carry out a two-stage upgrade, with the first, which was designated the Victoria Mk VI, or Configuration I, retaining the airframe of the Victoria, and therefore having a limited maximum weight, and a version with a strengthened airframe capable of taking full advantage of the greater power of the Pegasus engine. This was known as Configuration 2 and was designated the Vickers Valentia. It flew for the first time in 1934.
