EDITORS COMMENTS
G-AFCV, a beautifully preserved Short S30 Empire Flying Boat, is seen gracefully taking off from the water in this photograph. The Short S30, also known as the Caribou, is a versatile amphibian aircraft that was originally designed and manufactured by Short Brothers in the United Kingdom during the 1930s. This particular aircraft, registered to an aviation enthusiast, has been meticulously restored to its former glory and is a testament to the enduring appeal of these historic flying boats. The Short S30 was a significant aircraft in its time, serving both the Royal Air Force and various civilian operators around the world. Its unique ability to take off and land on water made it an ideal choice for transporting passengers and cargo to remote locations, particularly in the British Empire's far-flung territories. With a maximum speed of 135 mph and a range of over 1,500 miles, the S30 was a formidable aircraft that could traverse vast distances with ease. In this photograph, we see G-AFCV leaving the water, its powerful engines roaring as it lifts off, leaving a trail of spray behind. The aircraft's distinctive hull shape, with its curved lines and elegant design, is on full display as it climbs into the sky. The water reflects the sunlight, creating a shimmering effect that adds to the overall sense of motion and excitement. This photograph is a reminder of the rich history of aviation and the incredible machines that have shaped our world. G-AFCV, with its storied past and beautiful design, is a testament to the ingenuity and passion of those who have dedicated their lives to flying.
