You've done it again to me Garry! that's another morning not doing what I meant to do. :doh:
A fascinating read if you're even slightly interested in the history of the design, production and operation of the classic Shorts flying boats.
It even lists the sizes and quantities of all the rivets used - for those who count such items. :lol:
Thanks ;)
Cheers
