The Fairey Swordfish story.

Yeah the “Stringbag” was a remarkable aircraft, was surprisingly effective and amazingly served throughout the war. Basically carried a good war load and was reliable and relatively easy to operate off a carrier deck. The bravery of the crews was breathtaking…the channel dash attack on the German ships was a prime example. Imagine charging at the Bismark, with all it’s  guns blazing, at below 100KIAS?!
