EDITORS COMMENTS
This rare and remarkable print captures the G-ADHJ - Mercury - Transatlantic Float Seaplane, a unique aircraft that was part of the Short Bros. Mayo Composite Aircraft. Launched in mid-air from a Flying Boat in 1938, this one-of-a-kind plane represented the pinnacle of aviation design and innovation during the golden age of flight.
The sleek lines and advanced technology of the G-ADHJ are evident in this stunning image, showcasing its ability to traverse long distances over water with ease. The daring pilots who flew this aircraft must have felt like true pioneers as they soared through the skies on their transatlantic journeys.
The Short Bros. Mayo Composite Aircraft was a marvel of engineering, combining different components to create an aircraft unlike any other. The G-ADHJ stood out even among its peers for its distinctive design and impressive performance capabilities.
As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are transported back to a time when air travel was still a novelty and every flight held an element of adventure and excitement.
