This photograph showcases a Fairey Hamble Baby single-seat floatplane, an evolutionary development in the realm of World War I aviation. This biplane, an improvement upon the Sopwith Baby formula, was outfitted with wing edge flaps, adding an essential edge to its capabilities. These innovative aircraft were primarily used as anti-submarine patrollers, playing a pivotal role in the defense against underwater threats during the summer of 1917 and into 1918. The Fairey Hamble Baby floatplane, with its distinctive biplane configuration, was a sight to behold during the tumultuous days of the Great War.
