Would someone please post a cutaway of the WW2 fighter called the Westland Whirlwind. Are there any books available on this plane?
Also, a cutaway on Japan’s J2M Raiden Navy fighter.
I could make a small payment on paypal to anyone who would post these cutaways.

Mike Badrocke drew a cutaway back in the early eighties. You still see them from time to time.
Am at work at the moment so I can’t scan but I do know that Aeroplane M… (you know, the competitor to Flypast) had a Database article on the Westland Whirlwind (the fighter, not the helicopter!) less than three years ago.

There exists a standard work on the Whirlwind. It is not without its faults, but it is a good start.
Now, if only I could find my copy I’d tell you about it, certainly the title is ‘Westland Whirlwind”
Edit: It is written by Victor F. Bingham and there are copies for sale on Amazon if you want one.
