In 1912, the ship builder William Beardmore had proposed to the Admiralty an aircraft carrier design with a continuous, full-length flight deck, but it was not accepted.
Does anybody have any more info about it ? Thanks JSB


15,000t 450ft L 110ft B 6x4'guns with a flat deck and a structure on each side (funnels/mast ) with bridge over the top (and hangar under deck for 10 aircraft)
(British Aircraft Carriers: Design, Development & Service Histories By David Hobbs has a pic of a design)
