Viac o knihe
The book details the evolution of British flying boats, highlighting over 100 models developed from the early 20th century until the jet age. It chronicles the challenges faced in early water takeoff attempts and the significant role these aircraft played during World War I and II, particularly in anti-submarine operations and global maritime defense. The interwar period saw a rise in civil flying boats, catering to commercial air travel. Despite their wartime success, these aircraft dwindled in use post-war, fading into obscurity by the mid-1950s.
