A Short Shetland of the RAF Coastal Command showing off.
The Shetland was designed to be the replacement for the WW2 Sunderland. It first flew in 1944 and only 2 aircraft were completed before the war ended. Number one burnt at its moorings in 1946, the second was outfitted with seats as a passenger carrier, it was scrapped in 1951.
