Ahhhh thank you Hood,

That clears that point out of the way. Which puts the Battle back with its competition.

It is finding an airframe that can be used to carry a 1500lb 18" air launched torpedo, at a reasonable speed (220-250mph) for a 1000 miles, being launched and recovered off a CV.

Thanks for your comments Hood. I did look at the Fulmar, (O.8/38 Fairey Fulmar, Naval carrier-borne fighter/observation - winner developed from Fairey's earlier P.4/34 entry) but it was developed from the much smaller P4/34 and I can not see it being able to be adapted to carry a torpedo. The whole ...

Recently I posted the idea of the FAA using a navalised version of the Fairey Battle for its torpedo bomber from say 1938-to-41/42. Answers I got were not sure if it was workable or not as much because of the size of the aircraft. So I went away and did some homework and read up on the other light b...

I clicked on the link that you provided in the Renown thread. Clicked on the link to enable public folder in Dropbox, and surprise, surprise, they wanted money. Being shy with my money, I can see no reason to pay them US$9.99 a month or US$90 a year for something I can get for free by manipulating a...

The trick with Dropbox is in what is shown in the text pasted between the img tags. If it has https:\www.dropbox.com\(whatever) the image wont show. If that txt "www.dropbox.com is altered to "dl.dropboxusercontent.com" the image shows up fine. It took me awhile to figure it out. My partner has the ...

well done David, the drawing is looking good too.

I will edit my post above so that the drawing no longer shows.

After all, it is your privilege to show your work

Nigel :)

Heuhen, That is a very good tutorial if you have the 'old' version of Dropbox. Any new user to Dropbox using the 'new' version will not get it to work from your tutorial. The screens are different. The information on the clipboard link is different. Please read my post here: http://www.shipbucket.co...

David,
In the post above, what text do you have between the img tags?

Thanks

It seems people would like to see me try a RL drawing. Ok I will give it a go. I have a decent side view line drawing of HMNZS Dunedin as she was when transferred to the NZ navy in 1924 as replacement for the HMS Chatham. The line drawing lacks details, porthole placement, tie off points, hatches an...
