Re the Camel being the first twin gun British fighter: The SE 5 was operational a couple months before the Camel and it was equiped with two fixed forward firing guns as standard equipment (Lewis and Vickers). The Camel was merely the first British machine to use two synchronized guns as standard equipment (two Vickers). (I know you guys have been around long enough that you already knew that, but judging from some of the more recent inquiries on this forum, there would seem to be a lot of nuggets out there who wouldn't know that. Just cleaning up a minor detail.)
