I am considering trying to convert the HMS Glorious class battlecruiser that I picked up from Mike D. into the HMS Furious aircraft-carrier. It appears that the lengths are pretty close. The beam is 3' wider for the A/C. But does anyone know how much different the bulges may have been? Thanks. Mikey
Glorious and Furious were not twins to begin with. Furious even as a light BC was beamier. Why not convert it to Glorious as a CV?
The numbers that I could find tells me that the beam changed quite a bit from the BC versions (Glorious), to the aircraft-carrier versions. Like 8-9 feet or so added. Mikey
I think you are right that they were bulged, but as to where I am not sure. I know the folks at Strike sell a Furious hull (grrr!!!!) perhaps they could say. I am sure von Tugboat probably has plans for the Furious maybe he knows.
Thanks for the replies. I am not certain that the conversion will take place. But it certainly is an interesting thought. Mikey
