Ah!  Something to read during the long dark nights of winter.   Potentially very interesting!

"The Tarrant Tabor was a British triplane bomber designed towards the end of the First World War and was briefly the world's largest aircraft. It crashed, with fatalities, on its first flight. "

I get the feeling Handley Page may have picked up their baton, post-war, & run with it in the civilian airliner field.

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! :)

Well, yes, because HP obviously learned a few lessons from the Tabor's failure. ;)
