Supermarine Walrus

Supermarine Walrus

First flight was in 1933. 740 were made before the end of WW2. The Walrus rescued 1,000 Allied fliers who had been shot down over water. It was not a fast airplane:
  • maximum speed 135 MPH
  • cruise         92 MPH
  • landing speed  57 MPH
Landing speed was so low it could land on a carrier despite not having a tailhook.
