EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the elegance and power of a Short Singapore III aircraft of 230 Squadron, Royal Air Force (RAF), as it soars over Alexandria harbour in 1936. The Short Singapore III was a long-range flying boat, designed and manufactured by Short Brothers in the United Kingdom. It was a key component of the RAF's maritime patrol and reconnaissance capabilities during the interwar period, providing essential surveillance and protection of the vast expanse of the Mediterranean Sea. The Singapore III was a versatile aircraft, capable of carrying up to twelve passengers or a payload of up to 1,500 pounds of bombs. Its long range and endurance made it an ideal platform for long-duration patrols and reconnaissance missions. The aircraft featured a unique hull design, which allowed it to take off and land on water, making it an essential asset for the RAF's coastal defense forces. In this photograph, we see the Singapore III in its element, flying gracefully over the sparkling waters of Alexandria harbour. The image captures the beauty and sophistication of the aircraft, with its sleek lines and elegant curves. The harbour, bustling with activity, provides a stark contrast to the serene and powerful presence of the Singapore III. The photograph was taken by Charles E. Brown, a renowned aviation photographer who documented the RAF's aircraft and operations during the interwar period. His work captured the spirit of the RAF and the innovation and technology that defined the era. This photograph is a testament to the important role that the Short Singapore III played in the RAF's history and the critical role that maritime patrol and reconnaissance played in maintaining the security of the United Kingdom during this period.
