I like that. It's a good idea and well executed.

A long while ago I built a DH 108 to fit into a similar situation the RAF faced in 1946/47 but with He 343's over Scapa Flo
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Very nice!! I have a 138 in my stash that I have been wanting to turn into a pre-war high altitude PR, for spying on Germany's military build up.

Nice, except Bristol would never have used a US engine when they had their own Hercules and Centaurus powerplants available.

They did once.  The Beaufort Mk.II packed a Twin Wasp due to reliability problems with the Taurus, so there's a way in.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
