Morning all,
Been having a chat with Rob Curling (once of BBC, now of Top Landing Gear pod) on Twitter. The question of the sub-component manufacture came up.
Does anyone have a definitive list of what they made in St Nazaire, when, and the background.
We know it was all part of a commercial agreement pre Concord(e), probably was the tail/fin (although some of these were made at Hurn?) and doors (which Shorts/Harland got upset about).
Anyone seen any documents other than what’s in the various books?
