yea, didn't look close enough.

Looks like one of the British INVINCIBLE CLASS Battlecruisers.
HMS Invincible, Inflexable or Indomitable.


Hey Smids, thought you were doing WW1 Aircraft? First Deacon and now you. Everyone wants to get into my gig!  :rolleyes:

Based on my sources it's probably Invincible.  I have a series of images, which if they are labeled correctly show Invincible with white bands on all 3 funnels, Inflexible with a white band on the fore funnel, and Indomitable with no funnel bands.

 My images are from the July-1909-Spithead-Review timeframe.
