Read what I wrote about the Brabazon 1


Do you mean this:

"The Brabazon 1 had a pressurised cabin, hydraulic power units
to
operate
the
giant control surfaces, the first with 100% powered flying
controls,
the
first with electric engine controls, the first with
high-pressure
hydraulics, and the first with AC electrics."

Looks like a slightly modified copy-and-paste from
http://unrealaircraft.com/content.php?page=c_brab to me. It
doesn't
look
like your writing, not a single word is misspelled.

Brabazon was a project of three. Two were made, one never.

Only one Brabazon was made.

The Britannia was a Brabazon phase,

Actually it wasn't, it was built to a later requirement. Bristol
did
manage
to build more than one of them, but not by much.

Like 85 of them and long range versions as well.

That's the best you can do, your claim was "Brabazon was a project of
three.
Two were made, one never" and you haven't identified what they
proposed
or
what they actually built and the Britannia in case you missed it
WASN'T
"a
Brabazon phase".

There were actually 7 Brabazon categories.

You finally found a web site with some information, did you manage to
figure
out which of those "committee planes" could be considered a "success".

The Britannia derived from No.
111.

Wrong again (shame the web site you found wasn't the best available) the
Britannia was the result of a December 1946 BOAC requirement for a Medium
Range Empire transport and Bristol's original response was to propose a
Centaurus powered Lockheed Constellation.

All of Brabazon 11 went in to the Britannia.

The Britannia was a success, the finest prop airliner ever.

And I doubt you were ever carried as a passenger on one.

Yes to Spain on a charter once. Great plane.

It was ahead of
all others in refinement and used all the virtues of Brabazon 1,

The Brabazon I had none.

Please read again

which all
other lanes adopted, prop and jet. Few American airlines bought it as it
wasn't American and US prop equivalents were cheaper, although not
better
planes.

A better answer would have been

No. the better answer(s) were above.
