Thank you for the feedback; it is always much appreciated.

I will have a dig around to see if I can find any photographs of the various bombs used and photographs of them loaded in the bomb bay.

I am still intrigued about the 28lb bomb (eg in what way did it mimic its larger counterparts) but I know that it was used during the inter-war period as well so it must have been highly successful.

I haven't really started any detailed research on the nuclear weapons (dummy / live etc) carried by No. 35 Squadron, but hopefully I will get round to this subject later this week.

My project covers No. 35 Squadron's time at Coningsby, Cottesmore, Akrotiri and Scampton so I don't know whether bomb loadings / types changed during this period, but I am sure my enquiring mind will find it.

Thanks again for feedback to date

Regards

Pete
