Short Mussel - Eccentric Experimental Seaplane

Short Brother of Rochester, Kent, was formed in 1908. They generally built larger aircraft but, during the 1920s, designed three light aircraft. This film concentrates on the last design although the first two get an honourable mention.
Music: ‘Honeysuckle’ by Honeyroot.
