That got to be one of the maddest looking WWI aircraft I think I've seen - I would not have wanted to be an air gunner in that bastard.

Superb build CL

:P1: You are a master of all things unusual. Well done. Hell, you can even get a quick haircut up front... IF you’re careful. :giggles:

:wow:
Woooooh! That has to be the funkiest design that I’ve seen yet from the Royal Aircraft Factory. The mid fuselage prop is mind blowing! The nose gunner is really in a precarious position.

That is a very sharp build Peter! :shoutout:

Aerodynamics weren't developed that far back then, wasn't they? :hmm: :giggles:
What a crazy stringbag. Well done, CL!
