SB.6 Seamew?

[edit]

Was the Supermarine Seamew's type number really SB.6? Since SB/6 was the works designation of the Short Seamew it seems too much of a coincidence. --TraceyR 17:43, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Design and development

[edit]
  • Put a space between R. and J. (in the infobox and lead too)
Done. AM
  • Why was he preparing drawings, were they ordered by the Air Ministry?
