I dunno whether to like that or not! If we got shot of the gullwing and gave it retractable gear, it would look rather good! :p

It would not have made it into squadron service with the crank wing, Mitchell was about to ‘iron’ it out. Whether retracs would have been fitted is another matter, they’re not shown in the 1934 catalogue, the staight wing 224 was.
