No, sorry I should have been more clear, it is just the number of drawings. There are more than 100 files with information about the Stirling at the National Archives in Kew. From my experience with flying boat research, I would expect there to be 200 or more drawings scattered through those files. Some will have none, a few might have five or six drawings. For instance, a file I've seen on rocket propelled take off trials showed a Short Brothers drawing of part of a Stirling wing and how to mount the rockets. But it is impossible to know what might be there without going and looking.

I'm due to meet some of the project members next weekend and will ask as well. They are doing good work.
