Makes sence, I know the orginal plans show the extra 20m just infront of the forward island but as you say behind makes more sence to maximise the extra space and an easier space due to hull shape there.SKB wrote:If an extra 20 metres were ever added to the QE to make it 300 metres long (it never will, this is just hypothetical play), then I think the perfect place would be to split the QE in two between LB02 and LB03 (just behind the forward island), skid the bow end forwards and weld in new 20 metre blocks behind LB02, SP01Aft, CB02E, SP02Aft as the hull is nice and straight there and would add 20 metres of space into the hangar, as well as the flightdeck. Maybe i'll stick a drawing into the fantasy thread later...
What extra capacity do people believe the extra 20m could give aircraft wise aswell as stores wise ?
