The "Atalanta" is a six-seater open-sea reconnaissance flying-boat fitted with four Rolls-Royce "Condor" engines. A photograph of this machine is published herewith. It should be mentioned that the "Atalanta" is not a Manning-designed craft, having been designed by the Fairey Aviation Company, of Hayes, Middlesex. She was, however, built by the English Electric Company, The D.H.6 standing next to the "Atalanta" in the photograph should give a good idea of her size. It is not permissible to publish dimensions.

Регистрационный номер: N129 [2] Admiralty Specification N.4 called, in 1917, for a long-range flying boat for fleet co-operation. Fairey built two boats, N119 Atalanta and N129 Titania, the first appearing in 1923 and the second in 1925. Both had Linton-Hope flexible hulls built by boat-builders while Fairey produced the superstructure. Power was supplied by four 650 hp Rolls-Royce Condors in push-me-pull-you layout. N129 was built on the Clyde and taken to Fairey's Hythe factory, then on to Felixstowe for trials.
