SUPREME FOR OCEAN TRAVEL - THE BRITISH FlYING BOAT 1 OFF BY THE SEA-AIR ROUTE For purely overland air services the landplane is the natural choice. But where any considerable proportion of the route is over water the flying boat is the better proposition. It is certainly at no disadvantage in all-round performance, but offers greater flexibility in operation. Both require proper base facilities, but the flying boat has its runways provided by nature. And most of the world's long-distance air routes are in fact largely over water. SAUN E ft S - R SAUNDERS-ROE LTD., 49. PARLIAMENT STREET. S.W.I. TEL.: WHITEHALL 7271
