More info?[edit]

This article is wholly based on the piece in Wixey's book and there are a lot of unknowns. A couple of immediate points:

has anyone seen a photo of the Prawn on the water or in the air. here are lots of it on its dolly.
Wixey has the designer as Harold Bolas, who left sometime in 1929, though the dates are so vague that it could still be his. Our Parnall page says (without a source) HV Clarke, who certainly designed the G.4/31 some years later. There is a similar problem re the Possum: see its discussion page.

Any input?TSRL (talk) 10:09, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
