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.
