The Whale Has Wings is an alternate history, written by Astrodragon, first on Alernatehistory.net, but later published, with the divergence in 1933, but with major changes to the timeline starting during WWII. The Point Of Divergence is the Royal Navy retaking control of the FAA (Fleet Air Arm) from the RAF, leading to them developing planes, aircraft and aircraft carriers rather better than they did in real history. The changes start slow, and gradually snowball.
