MARINE MAJESTY: A fine impression of the lines and size of a Saunders Roe Lerwick long-range flying boat. Fitted with two Bristol Hercules sleeve-valve engines the Lerwick is outstandingly fast for a marine aircraft. Powered gun turrets are installed in the extreme bow and stern and on top of the hull.
A Lerwick out of water, with the beaching gear in evidence. The problems of engine access with a beached high-wing flying boat are amply demonstrated by the “siege tower” beneath the port wing.Самолёты на фотографии: Saunders-Roe Lerwick / S.36 - Великобритания - 1938
