Thanks Graeme,

Wings over NZ! Blimey, not the fastest moving thread I've ever seen! They're up to page 104 now, that last sixty has taken about nine months, we'll get Reg to calculate when they'll get to a million! replies

Open House I'm afraid as I'm off to bed now. Have a good day mate

Wow. Curtiss Raven. I don't suppose I'll ever win one of these but you certainly turn up some interesting ships.

Good morning FH,

As nobody has taken my OH I'll pick it up with this:



I'm back to work soon, but will return to monitor just after nine!

Good hunting!

Morning TC and FH.

Something from Supermarine/Pemberton-Billing?

Morning all!
But it's British, right?

Edit: browsed through the whole Flying Boats of the World website, but there's nothing remotely similar...

I've done the same mate!

I now don't think it's British (although the AD runs it close).

Morning HP

It is British, but I should say that although ordered, it was cancelled before completion!

C'mon, with that hull?
If it's not Supermarine the hull must be a Linton-Hope design for sure.
The Italians also made hulls that are pretty similar to this one, but the tails don't fit!

Edit: ok, British

Some time ago Trevor posted the Blackburn Pellet. It was just a hunch - thinking he may have returned to Blackburn.

Paid off......
