  • Регистрационный номер: G-AJYL   [6]

    G-AJYL with twin water-rudders retracted for launching. The author, near the port float, is helping to ease away the beaching trolleys. Because of the buoyancy of the tyres the aircraft needed a strong downward push to keep them clear of the float keels.

    An engine run before launching G-AJYL for the first test. Nev Reid is at the tail and the author is by the beaching trolley. Inset, no seagulls flying but plenty of “Flung spray and blown spume”, as John Masefield would have described this scene of 'YL taxying in rough water.

    Ready for the fray. The beaching trolleys are clear at last and everyone struggles to keep the heels of the floats clear of the slipway until the aircraft is pushed into deeper water.

  • Регистрационный номер: TW524
