How the Blackburn Blackburn reused the Blackburn Dart

The Blackburn Blackburn adapted the Dart torpedo bomber by replacing its torpedo-carrying arrangement with a large cabin while retaining major airframe components.

Notes

No Blackburn Blackburn survives, so recreating one would require a reconstruction. Its design descended from the Blackburn Dart torpedo bomber. The torpedo-carrying arrangement gave way to a large cabin, while the wings and tail carried over from the Dart. The same engine may also have been retained. A possible surviving Dart in Japan is mentioned from memory, without confirmation.
