Dear friends,

No.1, I may have a three-view but nothing really better than the one on the web. I'll see if there is any way I can find my information.

The profile is looking very nice!

This is another of those less well-known ships that I've always found very interesting. The glider-tow version flew in the opening act of the D-Day invasion but these crews got very little in the way of credit for their dangerous missions from the press or books.

Until this order I did not know anything about this machine and now I know that it could be so interesting. Thanks to some material I received a hour ago, I managed to make correction on the profile and more or less this can be accept as useful profile (when completed). In attach is very valuable image as well profile in progress :))

Excellent development program. It certainly captures the look of the Albemarle.
