Apropos of the Vanguard - Merchantman conversions, one of the Air Bridge old-timers told me that all the floorbeams were lowered by two inches as part of the modification. Anyone else chip in on that?
Same here, but Hatfield-speak, rather than Weybridge. I can still remember Trident cabin window part nrs (21-3FA305-1,IIRC), but birthdays? No chance!
