A Very Interesting Airplane. I love the Sleek "boat" design of the fuselage. I've always been curious about the design of the Engine. Is it purely to keep water from entering the cowling, or is it more efficient – either for more power, or fuel efficiency ? I am somewhat familiar with the "flying boat" and it two prop forward engines which were built in the Shorts Factory in Belfast (my home town) during WW2. for Sea Patrol and Sea Rescue, i.e. throwing inflatable dinghies and life-vests to sailors in the water, not actually 'landing' per se, as the Atlantic is a wildly rough Sea, so even if you could "land" you would probably Never get up again ! Anyway I digressed far enough from my original question – which still remains, if anyone can help. P&L. Kiéran☘
