The Westland Wallace was a British two-seat, general-purpose biplane of the Royal Air Force, developed by Westland as a follow-on to their successful Wapiti. As the last of the interwar general purpose biplanes, it was used by a number of frontline and Auxiliary Air Force Squadrons. Although the pace of aeronautical development caused its rapid replacement in frontline service, its useful life was extended into the Second World War with many being converted into target tugs and wireless trainers. In 1933 a Westland Wallace became the first aircraft to fly over Everest, as part of the Houston-Mount Everest Flight Expedition.

rdfs:comment	Westland Wallace était un avion biplan à deux places utilisé par la Royal Air Force. Il était développé par Westland Aircraft comme une suite au Westland Wapiti.Comme les derniers biplans multirôles de l'entre deux guerres, il a été utilisé par un certain nombre escadrons de la Force aérienne. Bien que le rythme de développement aéronautique a provoqué son remplacement rapide des services de première ligne, sa durée de vie a été prolongée pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, beaucoup étant converti en formateurs. En 1933, un Westland Wallace fut le premier avion à survoler l'Everest, dans le cadre de la Houston Mount Everest Expedition.

(pl) Die Westland Wallace wurde als Ableitung der Wapiti für die Royal Air Force Special Reserve (später Auxiliary Air Force) gebaut und nur von den AAF und AA Co-Operation Flight geflogen. Erst später wurde der Typ auch für Zielschleppflüge genutzt. Bei Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkrieges standen noch 83 der 104 gebauten Wallace Mk.II im Dienst. Zwei speziell umgebaute Wallace waren die ersten Flugzeuge, die den Mount Everest überflogen. (de)
