EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from June 1935, a formation of Royal Air Force (RAF) flying boats gracefully glide over the picturesque coastline of Felixstowe, England. The scene is a testament to the technological advancements of the time, as these innovative aircraft prepared for a fly-past at the RAF Display at Hendon. The first aircraft in the line-up is the Supermarine Stranraer, K3973, a versatile amphibian flying boat that would later become a mainstay of the RAF's maritime patrol and transport fleet. Next is the Short S14 Sarafand, S1589, a seaplane designed for both military and civilian use, showcasing the blurred lines between military and civilian aviation during this era. Following the Sarafand is the Short S19 Singapore III, K4577, a long-range flying boat that was instrumental in establishing air routes between Europe and the Far East. The fourth aircraft is the first prototype Saunders-Roe A27 London, K3560, a sleek and modern flying boat that boasted impressive speed and agility. Lastly, the Short S18 Knuckleduster, K3574, a torpedo bomber, completes the formation. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as these flying boats, with their unique combination of power, grace, and innovation, soared through the skies, leaving a lasting impression on the world of aviation. The RAF Display at Hendon was an opportunity to showcase these marvels of engineering to the public, highlighting the progress and potential of military aviation in the mid-1930s.
