EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Short S23 Empire Flying Boat, G-AETV, affectionately known as Coriolanus, during its service years. The Short S23 was a versatile and iconic flying boat, designed by the British aircraft manufacturer Short Brothers in the 1930s. With its distinctive hull and wing design, the S23 was an engineering marvel of its time. Coriolanus, registered as G-AETV, was originally operated by the British South American Airways (BSA) and later saw service with Imperial Airways. The flying boat was named after a character from Shakespeare's play, Coriolanus. In the late 1930s, Coriolanus was sold to Australian National Airways (ANA), where it was registered as VH-ABG. The Short S23 Empire Flying Boat was a vital transport aircraft during its era, providing essential air links between distant islands and remote regions. In the photograph, we see Coriolanus gracefully taking off from the water, its powerful engines creating a plume of spray as it lifts off. The image captures the essence of aviation history, showcasing the elegance and power of this legendary flying boat. The Short S23 Empire Flying Boat, G-AETV, or Coriolanus, remains an important part of aviation history. Its service with various airlines and its role in connecting remote regions during the pre-jet age make it a fascinating subject for aviation enthusiasts and historians alike.
