RAF Museum Short Sunderland flying boat

Film in which RAF personnel, assisted by a crane, complete the assembly of a Short Sunderland flying boat and tow it to a new position at the RAF Museum, Hendon.

RAF personnel pose next to a Short Sunderland flying boat at the RAF Museum, Hendon. Parts of the aircraft are lifted into place by a crane and the Sunderland, mounted on beaching gear, is towed across the RAF Museum site. RAF personnel lay metal matting to facilitate the aeroplane’s move across grass, and the Sunderland is seen parked outside the Museum’s colonnaded façade. Several views then show the Sunderland’s interior.
