Aircraft Engineering Reference Sheet: 6—Short Sealand

Abstract

The Sealand is an amphibian accommodating 5 passengers in the standard version, with others permitting up to 8 seats in the cabin and a folding seat beside the pilot. A mail locker is provided aft of the rear seat on the starboard side, baggage being carried in a compartment in the rear of the hull. A toilet can be installed. By removing the readily detachable undercarriage units the Sealand, can be operated as a flying boat with increased pay load.
