Re: Photo Sopwith

You're right, I missed that batch

However the photo shows the enlarged rudder so I believe it is from a later batch.
Do you have any photo of a Tabloid in the 1201-1212 batch, just to compare?

The early Sopwith aircraft are a nightmare. When Bruce Robertson made his book about him and the company he got full co-operation from Sir Thomas, but not sure if he was of much help really....

Cheers
Stig
