Yes, there is, and the RAFM’s got them, and they’re on show*. :rolleyes:

This thread’s turning to dribble.

*Try the fuselage of the Supermarine Southampton, an award winning unique and challanging restoration; the Supermarine Stranraer, flown by Short Belfast from Canada; and Supermarine Seagull V (sometimes thought of as a Walrus) from Australia.
