Yes, lets. Don't forget the doped linen used in the Hurricane was much easier to repair than the metal in the Spitfire.

I think that the Zephyr is very elegant, cost effective and fit for purpose, while Boeing's hydrogen fuelled craft smacks of a government aerospace subsidy. If the purpose is to stay up for two or three weeks while carrying an appropriate payload (high resolution camera) then the Zephyr gets my vote.

Will it be in the stores by Christmas? ? ?

Dear David,
