EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Porte or Felixstowe F3 N4360, an iconic aircraft that was meticulously built in the Malta Dockyard. The Malta Dockyard, located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, has a rich history of shipbuilding and naval tradition. However, this image transports us back to the early days of aviation, where the dockyard also played a pivotal role in the production of aircraft. The Porte or Felixstowe F3 was a British transport aircraft, designed and manufactured by the Porte Avion Company in Felixstowe, Suffolk, England. However, due to the outbreak of World War II, the company's facilities were taken over by the British government, and production was moved to Malta. N4360 is one of the many F3 aircraft that were built in Malta during this period. The aircraft in the photograph is seen in its pristine condition, with its distinctive grey and green camouflage paint scheme. The Porte F3 was a versatile aircraft, capable of carrying passengers, cargo, and even troops. Its twin engines and robust design made it an ideal choice for transporting supplies to remote locations, especially during wartime. The photograph captures the essence of the Malta Dockyard's role in aviation history, as well as the ingenuity and resilience of the British people during a time of conflict. N4360 stands as a testament to the innovative spirit of the Porte Avion Company and the crucial contribution of the Malta Dockyard to the development of British aviation.
