An interesting idea and nicely executed Andrew.   :thumbsup:

Would you mind if I did something similar but with a slightly different angle to it ?

Oh that is very impressive.

Thanks, I'll use Sabre engines on the one I'll eventually build, maybe Sabre VII's or VIII's (3000 hp each).  Did you know that English Electric bought out Napier, lock, stock & barrel in 1942 ?  So there would be a RW connection ----

If one countra-prop engine is good two just has to be a spanking good idea!  ;D
I just love this plane. I wonder if anyone built a smaller civil aviation version?

Side view from the Flight Archive (plus a couple of early designs).  There's also a drawing in the appendices of Stuck on the Drawing Board.  New 10ft wide fuselage with the wing mounted in the low position.

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.

Hmm.  One of those drawings is giving me ideas.

Now I'm not sugesting  arepaint or even a second build, but.....it's just struck me that that would look nice painted up in A/B-26 Invader Korean War colours.  All black preferably.
