the titanic wouldnt survive until nowadays. and if she did, nobody would care because it would just be another ship. it wouldnt be the biggest or the luxurious.

[quote:5a3b0c5685="thunderking"]another fact is
don,t forget the last ship of the white star line the britanic ,this last ship was more bigger than the titanic(903 feet)titanic (882.8 feet)and the britanic was also luxurious than the titanic ,but when the first world war begin the britanic was modified in hospital ship and sank at kea canal!!![/quote:5a3b0c5685]

Britannic [b:5a3b0c5685]wasn;t[/b:5a3b0c5685] longer than Titanic; she was the same length, but eighteen inches wider on both the moulded breadth and extreme breadth measures. This is attested to by the H&W plans and numerous other sources. She sank in the Kea Channel, not canal.

but shes still in pretty good condition isnt she?

The Britannic's in good condition, yes. Why else would the light fitting still be intact in the framework of one of the grand staircase domes?

i wouldnt know. im not that interested in the brittanic. why did they change her name tho? did they think it was bad luck?

It's hotly debated, and it didn't help that the WSL denied they'd contemplated the name Gigantic in the first place. Britannic at least sounds patriotic.

Mark.

yes but they didnt know that they were going to make her a hospital ship when they build her did they?

Why is there always a 'but'? :wink:

Seriously, I don't see what relevance that has to anything. The name Britannic had been used for a White Star liner in 1874, and one in 1929; so including our 1914 Britannic there were three.

I'm taking a break. :)

Little Rose please dont take this the wrong way but you need to chill a little Marks only telling you what he thinks but it seems that your wee mind is already made up and nothing that he says or does is going to change your way of thinking.
