Like I said, it was not my intention to resurrect the Titanic wheelhouse debate. As for the Ballard composite, I would really like to see either better compositing in this area or a single photo if possible.
My original question was about Olympic. It appears that they at least started building a curved front. I know from later photos that it was flat. I also know that there were no side windows (at least on the port side) in the photos I have. I know that that the photos show a recessed side door and wider wheelhouse. Then we get to the supposed last refit of Olympic shown in plans in Anatomy and it becomes nearly identical to Titanic. I won't argue the width of Titanic's wheelhouse, what I was just wondering was how one can account for possible changes to Olympic and what plan was used to determine door and window configuration on the side walls of Titanic. No arguments, just questions.
Regards,
Bob Read
