Storyline idea #1 Sea-camel at Hendon airfield.
When planning a large diorama I try to keep 2 things in the forefront of my mind
1-buy what you can,build what you must.
2-Did it happen or could it have happened?
Keeping that in mind ,and wanting to stay in 1/16th scale, and the fact that the next aircraft I have available to me in that scale ,is a Sopwith Camel ,here is my idea.
The Royal Navy during WW1 experimented with a modified Camel ,called the sea-Camel ,which was developed for defense against German dirigibles.It was built lighter in oder to climb to great heights,with only one gun and the fuselage could be broken in half for easier storage on a ship.These aircraft were considered expendable by the navy so no provision was made for them to land back on board.
In keeping with criteria #2 above,could the following have happened?A sea-Camel has departed HMS Furious(one of the 1st aircraft carriers)in defense of London during WW1,probably about 1917.Having run out of fuel over London it attempted a landing at London-Hendon field and crashed short of the runway.The aircraft was hauled into the Grahame-White factory for repairs.
My diorama would depict the aircraft nearing completion after undergoing extensive repairs(open structure-no fabric).I could envision the two halves of the fuselage(a unique feature of this aircraft) being re-joined together by a couple of mechanics under the watchful eye of a few RAF types.
