Floats removed during the current AirSpace reorganisation upheaval. Duxford's Sunderland was built by Short Brothers at Rochester as the first production Mk V. The primary improvement over the Mk III was the replacement of the 965hp Bristol Pegasus engines by 1,200hp Pratt & Whitney R-1830 Twin Wasps. After postwar Aeronavale service, the aircraft became badly derelict and a massive restoration effort by Duxford Aviation Society volunteers from 1976 and through the 1980s brought it back to the superb condition in which it is now on show

T9040 was involved in a 74-hour tow after it was forced down in the Atlantic on February 9, 1942 while on convoy escort duties. The corvette HMS Auricular towed it back to Cline Bay, Freetown. T9040 was lost when in caught fire at Alness, Scotland, on July 2, 1942 where it was being used for training. HMS Auricular had already been sunk, on May 5, when it stuck a mine. There was no loss of life in either incident. Photo from: Imperial War Museums
