Flying
July 9th 1938
The Short 'C' class Empire flying boat “Canopus ” cover art by Howard Leigh.
Aviation magazine, which started in 1938 and was the weekly
sister to the monthly “Popular Flying”. Both magazines were edited by a certain
W E Johns, the creator of Biggles, and both ended during WWII.
Up until recently I thought the Short Sunderland Flying boat
was a shorter version of a Sunderland Flying boat. I didn’t realise it was the
manufacturer’s name – Short Brothers.
