VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The Empire Flying Boat 'Camilla', registered G-AEUB, sits proudly outside a hangar under overcast skies—its name emblazoned across its nose. Manufactured by Short Brothers, this seaplane was part of Britain's preeminent maritime aviation heritage during the interwar period and beyond. Designed to serve remote parts of the British Empire where land-based runways were scarce, these flying boats became icons of luxury travel and engineering prowess. Their role was often peaceful—"a pacific role"—as they carried passengers and mail across vast stretches of ocean before jet airliners transformed global travel.
