Default Seen one of these before?

Yes indeed Dickeybird , Its a beautiful and unique airplane apparently built as a result of the Brabazon committees recomendations for a short haul postwar airliner.

My all time favorite airliner has to be the DH 91 Albatross. probably the most sensual airliner ever built with its twin tails, georgous cowls over the four Gypsy Majors and shark like fuselage, Man that one is worth the aggravation of doing a quad or even "fakkery" .

Shoot look at this way, generally the loss of an engine on a quad is usually less tramatic than on a twin.
