Considering that the Viking was a (slight) reworking of the Wellington with a new roomy fuselage, I'm sure you were surprised that the basic design was capable of such development, evolving further into the Varsity and Valetta.

A pity you never got your hands on the Vickers Windsor (Did Vickers purposely choose names that would be difficult for the Chermans to pronounce correctly)?
Four main undercarriage legs!! A pity it didn't get into service, I wonder how it compared to the Lincoln.
