MARCH 195 I FLIGHT ' From Greenland's icy mountains, to India's coral strand . . .' the Sealand is perfectly at home. Difficult terrain of almost any kind is its happy hunting ground, whether it consists of mountainous, forested country or scattered tropical islands. Restricted landing facilities are no worry at all to this versatile amphibian which is quite content with even a restricted stretch of water. And no less varied than the areas in which it is capable of operation, are the uses of the Sealand—an extremely comfortable passenger transport, it is also a highly profitable freighter, or both. It converts easily and can undertake survey work, coastal patrol, air-sea rescue, air charter, forest and fishery service and innumerable other tasks efficiently and at a reasonable cost. In a phrase—the Sealand provides a simple answer to a great many apparently difficult problems of aircraft operation and navigation Shorts SEALAND AMPHIBIAN Designed for Areas where Freight and Passenger Carriage is impracticable for Normal Aircraft SHORT BROTHERS & HARLAND LIMITED, QUEENS ISLAND, BELFAST. London Office: 17 GROSVENOR STREET, W.I.
