Yes, excellent work, and fun to watch the "build-up" from conception to completion!

Very nice Coastal Command ship. In just the antisubmarine role there are so many variations of the Liberator, from the early short-nosed LB-30s all the way through to the later models.

Now a question that may be very stupid, but you know who asks doesn't wonder around :) Was a Coastal Comand a part of Fleet Air Arm or was a separate for itself :-think

Coastal Command was a part of the RAF and completely separate from the Fleet Air Arm. Air Marshall Harris wanted the large bomber aircraft for Bomber Command and "borrowed" many aircraft and crews during the early part of the war. Coastal Command tended to get less capable equipment until early '43, when leadership finally realized that the Command was very effective in the U-Boat campaign.
