F.A.Q Section - Ask your questions here :)

Q: Do you take aircraft requests?
A: I have a list of aircraft I plan to cover, but feel free to add to it with suggestions:)

Q: How do you decide what aircraft gets covered next?
A: Supporters over on Patreon now get to vote on upcoming topics such as overviews, special videos, and deep dives.

Q: Why do you use imperial measurements for some videos, and metric for others?
A: I do this based on country of manufacture. Imperial measurements for Britain and the U.S, metric for the rest of the world, but I include text in my videos that convert it for both.

The Handley Hanley: hardly a handy handler

"Continental Drift" when talking about I love it :-D

[GrahamWKidd]

The continental drift comment was wryly hilarious!

I know a lot of your viewers like the long form deep dives, but I much prefer these shorter spotlights. I think the ~20 minute mark is perfect. I love all your videos, but wanted to encourage you to continue to create shorter videos as well. Thanks for the hard work you put in to these. It shows.

Crinkle wood?
I think the field was at Cricklewood, where The Goodies had their futuristic office.

Governor Lepetomane: Thank you, Hanley.
Handley Page: No, it's Handley!
Governor Lepetomane: It is?

[Alobo]

Am I the only one to think that at this stage of airplane design/construction, "Crinklewood" is both a good name and a description for a landing field?

As for additional videos, always love to hear more about the Handley Page aircraft.

When you lose out to a Blackburn, you know something's probably gone wrong.

I was rather amused at the Hanley's head-on view of its divided undercarriage which made it look knock-kneed.😂

Handley Page where based in Cricklewood, in North West London, not Crinklewood.

I did not realize that the fore wing, slat, was an invention from Handley Page. I am quite impressed.

Thank you for this excellent video, as well as all your others. I apologize for this nitpick, but it is my understanding that the Napier Lion was a W-12 engine, not a V-12.

ooooh New video. Always interested in new videos, Rex!

Very nice, i had just finished listening to your backlog and I just started my shift at work

Please make films about any aircraft you like I enjoy your productions.

The "d" is for "distress". It's not in the name because we put it in the heart of the test pilots.
