the idea was that the AéM used the Walrus from 1939 as an Air Sea Rescue aircraft, and as a U-boot Hunter.

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The Walrus

What the devil is the 'Daily Kos'?  :unsure:

A US news blog site with a distinct Democratic leaning, Kit.  Although some unusual blogs (like the Walrus) do pop up.
