About the same timeframe as this photo, there was a six engine flyingboat
parked on the seaplane ramp at Marseilles, France. It had dual rudders mounted on horizontal stab with pronounced dihedral. Engines had been removed...... could it have been a Short Sunderland? Pictures? Old Chief Lynn "Joseph Testagrose" wrote in message ... |

Pictures? 50% more engines than a Sunderland but it sounds like it could be a Sud-Est SE200 which apparently languished at Marignanne until the early 1960s. The attached photo is one of several of the SE200 at: http://theflyingboatforum.forumlaunc...php?f=15&t=834 |
