Which brings us back to the Connaught and Cornwall non-existent Web Home Page.

The 'Naval Airship Construction Company' got a third lease on life when I entertained the notion of building 3D Naval Airships to sell on websites for 3D Computer Pilots. I was much into designing fanciful seaplanes around that time. I had a program that allowed me to build a model that could be imported into Microsoft Flight Sims; complete with moving control surfaces that would respond to joystick commands. But all was not as simple as it seemed. The program necessary to do this was a 'lite' version of 3D StudioMax...and Max has a wicked learning curve. The 'lite' version was just as bad. Plus...when it came time to give the plane attributes like speed, rate of climb, weight, fuel consumption, etc. you were soon into writing computer code, and I have no head for that.

Once again, C & C disappeared beneath the waves. Below are a few candidates for the C & C stable; mostly drawn from fiction. With the next post, I'll bring out some of my original designs.
