If you compare this aircraft with the DC-4 Carvair which got retractable landing gear, it seem old fashion with the fixed landing gear? Never any plans to make with retractable landing gear? RGDS Alexmcfire —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexmcfire ( talk • contribs) 19:38, 30 May 2007
Was there no civilian replacement? I remember the service from Lydd to Le Touquet. I’m rather surprise that the idea of flying people bodily with their cars, from England to France, died out. Paul Magnussen ( talk) 17:51, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Copy-edit from the article: "Ref:- The "Bristol 170" page describing the Bristol Type 170 Freighter airliner. I would like to add to the page that a book on the Bristol 170 is now available, written by myself and is a very comprehensive history of the 214 Freighters built. It contains over 300 photographs, many unpublished before plus some 50 in colour with a selection of side-view drawings depicting operator liveries. The book includes detailed technical and structural details with comprehensive histories of all the companies and air forces which operated the type over some 50 years. The book is published by Air-Britain (Historians) Ltd, and is available from Air-Britain (Historians) Ltd on www.air-britain.co.uk Sales dept:- 41, Penshurst Road, Leigh, Tonbridge, Kent, TN11 8HL, England. Full details follow:
I'm sure many aircraft have been described thus: I'm deleting it. And the history section completely disagrees with Barnes, who states that it was a private venture. I'm amending, but will probably leave a bit of a mess behind me: time is short today. TheLongTone ( talk) 14:43, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
