The FBA company was continued as Hydravions Louis Schreck FBA after WWI, still producing small flying boats. Their first design with a tractor propeller, the FBA 19 was built in small numbers, including one three-seat FBA 19 HMT.3 amphibian (Hydravion Mixte de Transport) which was delivered to Air Union. It is seen here on the Thames at Hammersmith. The pilot, wearing a life jacket, is Maurice Noguès. Photo from: Air Union
