I wonder what a rack full of rockets was like to handle.
However, you can read two meanings into the statement here. Either the plane could only carry a single drum, fed Lewis, or a single, drum fed Lewis, with no mention of how many spare drums could be toted. If only one drum was on board, there would be no point in developing a method of re loading the gun in flight, or would there?
