When is some “Outside the Square” thinking billionaire is going to build a replica of this majestic aeroplane. Surely the plans and blueprints are still in existence. Cheers from an Aviation Tragic .
Think what an Airshow stealer that would be! But of course H&S would be all over it in a flash insisting on changes etc. Even the word "Imperial" would probably get removed in case it was deemed racist and offended some ruddy snowflake!
This airliner looks to be sturdy and conservatively designed, based on the craft that HP built in WW1. I wouldn't fly it into a heavy thunderstorm, but in fair weather, in daylight, flown by a sober, qualified pilot, it looks safe. Lots of control surface & wing area.
What a beautiful aircraft it was.
