[edit] Geodetic Construction?

"The bomber design was based naturally on geodetic construction in which Wallis was an expert having used it for several aircraft including the Vickers Wellington."... huh?!??

I can't figure out how this relates to aircraft design. Am I just dense? Pjbflynn 20:17, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

I think it's just confusingly worded. The Wellington used geodetic construction for the fuselage (and wings from the look of it). Here's the first relevant image that Google found: http://www.bomber-command.info/blwimpy6.htm Mark Grant 20:47, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
OK, I've re-worded that section, hopefully it's less confusing now. Mark Grant 20:54, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
