Short S.17 Kent Flying Boat

[kloakovalimonada]

Bomberguy, I love you too. I am a great fan from the Czech republic. Maybe you know, long time we were cut off from the real world, now we learn the history. It's not only the Short Kent, but all the beautiful historical airplanes ever built and flown, which we only have learned from the pictures. You have managed to get them come again. Many thanks.

Wonderful clip of film, if only they had colour film then, It would be great to see that plane lifting off into the rising sun. Air travel today is grim.

What's up with that big ass trim tab off the tail?

The music is 'Waiting for the evening mail' by Red Nichols and his Orchestra. Album - Jazz Sound Lexicon 1931 vol 4.

These were the good old days. Planet of the Apes is coming soon so watch these videos before some Negro breaks into your house and steals your computer.

@MrBEB123 you never know Beb, your pop might have been part negro, the irony.

[MrBEB123]

@raychristofer Come on, you can do better than that.

What a classic! Love it!

Them were the days, eh - when travel had some style about it.

Pity they don't do a marine version of the

A380 . . .

"Bristol Juniper"???? Are you joking?

Surely you mean Jupiter!

[peepeevagi]

Strange to think they tried to launch fighters from it.

450 mile range, 137 mph cruise, a built in head-wind? On a flight to India it wouldn't do to have a seat next to someone with a personal freshness problem would it? Still, I suppose you could always open the windows!
