This 40 page monograph on the classic Short 184 seaplane is crammed with over 112 rare archive photos from Jack Bruce's unrivalled collection. The type has some claims to fame: No. 842 was the first aeroplane to torpedo an enemy vessel in anger; another, No. 8359, was at Jutland and segments of it survive to this day at Yeovilton's Fleet Air Arm Museum. This packed reference contains 1:48 and 1:72 scale drawings spread over eight pages, several pages of close-up detail photos and there are also colour notes with three rear cover profiles by Ray Rimell - plus exhaustive appendices and production data.
