| Toying with the idea of building this..... |

| Drawn about 75% of plans. I like this aircraft too.... |

| It had twin DH "Queen Six" engines. |

| I'd like to see this! There are other similar British designs from the same period that have interested me. |

| Miles Gemini for example? |

| That would be a good one. Some of them would be from other countries: Caproni Ca.308, almost the same thing but with fixed gear; Tugan Gannet, Australian; Koolhaven F.K.57; Airspeed Ferry (You gotta look this one up!), Blackburn B1; Airspeed Oxford (Original); Handley_Page Marathon, (Looks like my Bostillation with 4 engines); Percival Merganser (almost the Petrel with high wing); Miles Peregrene; Miles Aerovan; and, of course the DH.88 Comet; and the DH.104 Dove

| Bob: Wonderful to see a Draughtman's art again. Surely it is a fading profession. |

| I really like this. Can't get the right words, but it just makes me want to fly in it. And I agree with Ray about the drawing. |

| Thank you Guy's for your comments - actual frame design to do now - that fuselarge is 5" wide so I may need to fabricate thin plywood formers? I quite enjoy this part of building a model. |
