It's all Spinner's Fault

The recent spate of Meteors has given me a few ideas, which boiled down to a Meteor F1 which I just found in the stash in Tiger Force white over black. Undecided if it will have SEAC or BPF roundels - any opinions on this.
Also I have some 60lb RPs for the fighter bomber role.
Could an F1 carry the belly tank - as in did it have enough power to carry the weight.

It could in Whiffworld, should your plans require it.      See Kit's second law; also known as Rheged's hypothesis,  A well written backstory can cover  anything!

Tiger Force Lancasters & Mosquitos were to have had BPF roundels and that is what my Hornet and Tempests will have, if I ever get around to finishing them  :-\ .

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Also, a study of the ancient art of Whifjitsu is beneficial, Glasshopper: that is, the art of cunningly re-arranging the backstory to match the model you can actually build or ended up with, as opposed to the initial idea.
