DescriptionPlan of original TAIPAN by Ben Lexcen (then Bob Miller).
Note attached reads 'This is the original TAIPAN plan done by Bob. I have inked in the sheet after Bob cut the original height down. You can see in the bottom LH corner where she is called DER SCHNAKE. You can also see where Bob has been sketching over the original section to arrive at the Rounded Topside concept which [?] became VENOM.'
