Not at all, interesting stuff.
A 51D if I'm not mistaken and what an almost unbelievable set of happy coincidences; it wouldn't have existed without the original order from the British Purchasing Commission driving the specifications, the idle tinkering of Sir Stanley Hooker wondering if he could borrow one and see if a Merlin would fit, plus the designer being a self-taught, German immigrant.
Nothing quite like a plan coming together.
