Default Small World at Times

Clicked on the Wings Across the Sea The History of Australian Naval Aviation link and got a kick out of the two planes on the cover A4 and S2 both happen to be aircraft that my father worked on developing for the US Navy. Both enjoyed very long service with both the US and other Navy s around the world.

I've read the detailed history of both aircraft and one of the things that I found of interest was the modifications made to them by various other countries to make them more suitable for their operational needs.

Cheers Phil
