Dropping you off right next to the Ras el-Tin Palace in Alexandria. Imperial Airways journeys were not particularly fast, but certainly scenic. As a member of the British upper class you were not supposed to be in a hurry, anyway. Dating uncertain. Photo by: Ernst Ackermann / SLUB / Deutsche Fotothek

The passengers were having breakfast on the Imperial Airways station boat. Coriolanus was brand new, having commenced her maiden trip to Alexandria as flight IE 559 on 20 June and going back to Southampton as IW 557 on 22 June. She carried out evacuation missions from Java to Broome, Australia in February 1942 and was transferred to Qantas as VH-ABG later in 1942. The last Empire flying boat in service, she was withdrawn on 23 December 1947 and scrapped soon thereafter. Photo by: Sophie Petersen / National Museum of Denmark

Imperial Airways sent this early DH.86 to the Far East in September 1935 to explore a branch route from Penang to Hong Kong, which was inaugurated by Dorado in March 1936. The aircraft stayed in the Far East until 1940 when it was transferred to Africa.

Pictured over Chesapeake Bay, most likely by the 104th Observation Squadron of the Maryland National Guard on 17 November 1937 according to the photo source. The service from Bermuda - not from Britain - to New York was redirected to Baltimore Municipal Airport between this date and 6 April 1938 to avoid the icy winter conditions in New York. The next winter the service continued to New York, until Cavalier ditched and sank in the ocean on 21 January 1939. Photo from: Enoch Pratt Free Library

The S.23 flying boats lacked the range to cross the big pond with payload but a limited route was opened between the British territory of Bermuda and New York or Baltimore. Cavalier was actually shipped to Bermuda. Suffering icing, the aircraft ditched en route from NY - Port Washington to Bermuda on 21 January 1939 and three of the 13 people on board lost their lives.

During the 1930s and 1940s there was a New York Seaplane Airport outside the city in Port Washington, Long Island. Both Pan Am and Imperial Airways used it pending the completion of La Guardia's Marine Air Terminal. Their Sikorsky S-42 and Short Empire class flying boats didn't have enough range for transatlantic services and only proving flights were made, although a limited commercial service was started between Bermuda and New York.

A nice place to watch the aeroplanes. Detail of the same original picture as photo 419190 which shows sister ship Dryad too. Denebola was delivered a little earlier in February 1936 and both were fitted with endplate fins on the tailplane in the spring of 1937. G-ADUI to BOAC in 1940, impressed into the RAF as HK830 in Africa in 1941 and written off after a taxiing accident at Bilbeis in Egypt in 1942. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

Compared to the earlier S.23, the S.30 had Bristol Perseus engines giving marginally less power but better efficiency and less drag. The airframe was strengthened to allow higher take-off weights. Cabot was the second of eight S.30 flying boats built but the first to fly in December 1938. Cabot was used for in-flight refuelling trials with Harrow tankers. Impressed as V3137, she was lost in a mission to Norway in May 1940. Photo from: Flight

The upper component of the Short-Mayo Composite, the S.20 is rarely treated in its own right and has even been confused with the S.22 Scion Senior. The sole S.20, Mercury first flew solo on 5 September 1937 and was launched by G-ADHK Maia for the first time on 20 January 1938. When taking off solo, its gross weight was 7031 kg (15,500 lb) but launch weight from Maia was up to 12,160 kg (26,800 lb), allowing a 9728 km (6045 miles) flight to South Africa. In 1940 the aircraft was assigned to the RAF's 320 (Dutch) Sqn, but it does not seem to have been used and was scrapped in 1941. Photo from: San Diego Air & Space Museum

In another transatlantic airmail scheme, the Short-Mayo Composite devised by Robert Mayo of Imperial Airways, the modified Empire flying boat was the launch aircraft for the S.20 floatplane, G-ADHJ Mercury. The combination is seen on the River Tay at Dundee. Mercury separated from Maia over Dundee to fly 9728 km (6045 miles) to Alexander Bay in South Africa, a record distance for a seaplane.
