Hospital Ship Britannic web site

[Michail Michailakis]

Hello,

Mark's latest article regarding Britannic's engines and boilers is online at www.hospitalshipbritannic.com (look in the "RMS Britannic" section).

Good work Mark!

Best regards,
Michail

Hi Michail,

Thanks for the link. It's nice to see the article. One thing, though; the 'turbine rotor' photo is the recirpcoating engines in April 1914.

Best regards,

Mark.

Just gave it a very quick look and now I'm bemoaning the fact that I really need to get to bed. Looks like a great article Mark. I know what I'll be reading on my weekend!

Hi Mark,

I was misled by a typo in "Last Titan".It also seemed strange to me,because the object in the photo above right (in page 24) looks more like a rotor to me but the caption describes it as "pieces of machinery".

I'll fix it now.Thanks for the observation.

Best regards,
Michail

Very interesting, Michail! Mill's new book sounds like a good read. I wonder when that big documentary that he says is being planned will hit the air?

 

[Remco Hillen]

Hello Brandon,

My guess would be that the new documentary will hit the air some time after the new expedition he talks about is finished. So it could take a while...

Regards,
Remco

 

[Brandon Whited]

Yeah, that seems like a good time for it to air.

 

[Michail Michailakis]

Hello,

The new documentary will be filmed DURING the new expedtion.My guess is that we'll have to wait a couple of years to see it on the air.

Regards,
Michail

 

[Remco Hillen]

Hello,

Thank you for the compliment, it's nice to hear the artical turned out well.

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas/suggestions for possible new articles? I always find it hard to think of something, or I don't know if the thing I thought of is interesting to others...

Of course I can't garantee that an artical will appear, but it's always worth a shot..!

Regards,
Remco

How about an article on some of the features that would have been installed on Britannic had she lived to become a passenger ship? A good example of this was the pipe organ that would have been at the base of the grand staircase. It's been said that the third sister would have been more luxurious than Titanic, so maybe you could describe how and why it would. Does an article like this all ready exist, or is there enough information to do one like this? I think it would be interesting.
