Originally the Short S.17/L, later named the Short L.17, the landplane derivative of the S.17 Kent flying boat.

Only 2 built, with Scylla shown with the experimental rudder with trim tab fitted.
The Imperial Airways publicity sketches show the aircraft with spats fitted to all wheels, however I could only find one photo with only a single spat fitted to the tailwheel, so if the spats were fitted, they weren't retained for long.

The USAAS's other "Advanced Pursuit Trainer" the Standard E-1:

Considered unfit as a Pursuit plane, the USAAS used them as advanced trainers, during and mostly after WW1.

Good evening.

After de very complete instructions of the bad cop (thanks a lot), I am able to show the redrawn Maritime:

[ img ]

Credits. First of all, my thanks for Eswube and his patient (very) corrections. (Yes, my first original blueprint was awful :? ). In second term, to BB1987, because his Fokker Friendship (which was far better than my first Maritime atempt), showed me the proper shape of the nacelles and the nose, many panel lines, the oval form of the windows, details in the engines, the correct shading of the aft fuselage and the proper ubication of many details. In fact, I feel that my drawings owes so much of the former BB1987 aircraft that his name is the the credit line ;). Cheers.

P.S.1 The KLu Maritime version was a request of an fellow artist from Leerdam ;) ! I prefered this blue & white scheme to the all white version of the last pictures, cause the former looks much more «warlike» than the later (at least to me).

P.S.2 Of course, if there is something incomplete or missing or wrong, I will be very receptive with your comments.Cheers.

Nice additions.

I've nothing to add to the F-27 Maritime, it seems to look ok but I haven't dug deep into the topic to check aerial positions etc.

I've returned on my update of the A320-NEOs and added both engine choices, the PW1000 and the CFM LEAP. Not sure if the original engine drawn by GD when he first did the NEOs was eiter the PW or the CFM, so to avoid errors I redid the powerplants.

A319/320/321 NEO family:

In the next weeks I should be able to return to the A320-CEO as well, adding the PWs for the A318 and the IAE engines for other variants as right now only the CFM powerplants are featured.
