  I'm considering a couple or three fairly unusual backstories, but I don't wish to tread on any fellow whiffers toes by stealing an idea on which they are currently working.   Would it offend/annoy/inconvenience  any colleague were I to tell the story of  :-

1)  An early Edwardian Royal Naval air Service dirigible   with an ultra light weight Hornsby-Ackroyd oil engine  and suitable frills and furbelows  added

2)  Eric Brown's work concerning the German "Hanebu"  device

3)  The Blackburn Buccaneer in Royal Canadian, Royal Australian  and Royal New Zealand  Navy service.

If there have been no cries of outrage by the end of May, I'll get started .

Not from me, although you have given me an idea for the One Week Group Build  ;D

I already have my rough backstory for #3 - for the RAN & RAM - & two of the new Airfix Bucc's to build for it.  ;D  ;)

Dirigible!
In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.
