The C 19 Machine with device for starting the rotor blades.
The Short "Singapore" Rolls Royce Flying Boat after its 23,000 miles Flight, piloted by Sir Alan Cobham.
Fitted with the Genet Major engine which gives it a cruising speed of 90 m.p.h. the Avian is the most attractive plane so far produced for club or private use. It says much for this aeroplane that it has been chosen by many of the best clubs as their standard machine, and by many private owners for their personal use. It is small, light and handy, and not an expensive machine to run.
