SR45 Princess Over Cowes by Ivan Berryman [Postcard]

Artist: Ivan Berryman [browse all Ivan Berryman]       

Aircraft Depicted: Civilian Aircraft [other products featuring these aircraft]

The mighty ten-engine Princess flying boat was one of the most advanced aircraft of its day in terms of pressurized hull and assisted flying controls and yet it was, at the same time, something of an anachronism as the age of flying boats had come to an end and the exciting new jet era had arrived. The only SR.45 ever to fly is depicted over the Cowes works where she was built in 1952.
