Re: Ducted spinner Tempest NV768

Wow, thanks Neil for this link! It reads that this Tempest was actually a Mark V upgraded to Mark VI standard and it seems that the ducted spinner conversion was carried out rather for turboprop development than for the actual Tempest programme. It also seems that this conversion was done well after the war, instead of 1944/45. Now this really sheds some new light onto the issue for me, thanks again!
