SUPERMARINE WALRUS
& SEA OTTER
![]()
![]()
The Supermarine Walrus first flew in 1935. Initially designed to be
carried on warships for reconnaissance, the aircraft was mainly used
for air-sea rescue purposes. It was the first operational RAF aircraft
to incorporate retractable undercarriage and an enclosed crew
cockpit.
740 examples were built in two main versions, the Mk 1 with a metal
fuselage and the Mk 2 with a wooden fuselage.
The Sea Otter was a development of the Walrus, with the main change
being the fitment of a more powerful engine in a tractor configuration.
292 examples had been built when production was halted by the end
of WW2.
This CD contains the complete flight manuals for both of these aircraft,
has been scanned from the original manuals and retains any colour
pages.
