dbo:abstract
  • Die Supermarine Stranraer war ein zweimotoriges Doppeldecker-Flugboot des britischen Herstellers Supermarine Aviation Works. Die 57 gebauten Maschinen wurden während des Zweiten Weltkriegs hauptsächlich als Begleitflugzeuge für Schiffskonvois in der Seeaufklärung und zur U-Boot-Bekämpfung eingesetzt. Die Stranraer war das letzte Doppeldecker-Flugboot der Royal Air Force (RAF). Der Typ wurde nach der Air Ministry Spezifikation R.24/31 entworfen und hatte seinen Erstflug am 27. Juli 1934. Die RAF stellte die Stranraer ab dem 16. April 1937 in Dienst. Die Struktur bestand größtenteils aus Duraluminium, die Rumpfhülle aus Blech und die Tragflächen waren mit Gewebe bespannt. Im Heck war ein Waffen-Drehturm eingebaut. Die Maschine hatte zwei Sternmotoren Bristol Pegasus X mit 920 PS (685 kW). Im März 1941 zog die RAF die Stranraer von der Front ab. Sie dienten noch bis Oktober 1942 für Trainingszwecke. Insgesamt wurden 17 Stranraer im Vereinigten Königreich und 40 Maschinen bei Canadian Vickers für die Royal Canadian Air Force produziert. Die RCAF verwendete die Flugboote während des ganzen Krieges. Danach gingen 14 Stranraer als zivile Maschinen an die Queen Charlotte Airlines in British Columbia (Kanada). (de)
  • Le Supermarine Stranraer était un hydravion biplan bimoteur de patrouille maritime des années 1930, conçu par le constructeur britannique Supermarine Aviation Works (Vickers), Ltd. principalement pour la Royal Air Force (RAF). L'avion fut également produit sous licence au Canada pour la Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) et resta en service jusqu'en 1946. Après leur retrait du service au sein des armées, beaucoup de Stranraers canadiens furent revendus à des compagnies aériennes régionales naissantes et effectuèrent des liaisons commerciales de fret et de passagers jusque dans les années 1950, période à laquelle ils furent définitivement mis à la retraite.

  • El Supermarine Stranraer (denominado originalmente Southampton Mk V) era un hidrocanoa biplano que voló por primera vez en 1935. Basado en el popular hidroavión biplano Supermarine Southampton, entró en servicio con la Royal Air Force (Real Fuerza Aérea Británica) en 1937, cuando esta encargó diecisiete unidades. En Canadá la compañía Canadian Vickers de Montreal fabricó entre 1939 y 1941 otras cuarenta unidades para la Real Fuerza Aérea Canadiense. Cómo avión militar, fue usado en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, siendo retirado del servicio primario en 1941. Siguió utilizándose hasta 1942 como avión de entrenamiento y hasta 1957 en la aviación comercial, como aeronave de pasajeros y mercancías. (es)
  • The Supermarine Stranraer is a flying boat designed and built by the British Supermarine Aviation Works company at Woolston, Southampton. It was developed during the 1930s on behalf of its principal operator, the Royal Air Force (RAF). It was the RAF's last and fastest biplane flying boat. Derived from the Supermarine Scapa, the aircraft's design was heavily shaped by Specification R.24/31, issued in 1931. After an initial rejection by the Air Ministry, Supermarine persisted with development as a private venture under the designation Southampton V. During 1933, a contract was placed for a single prototype; it was around this time that the type was named the Stranraer. First flown on 24 July 1934, the Stranraer entered frontline service with the RAF during 1937; most examples of the type were in service by the outbreak of World War II. The Stranraers typically undertook anti-submarine and convoy escort patrols during the early years of the conflict. During March 1941, the model was withdrawn from frontline service, but continued to be operated in a training capacity until October 1942. In addition to the British-built aeroplanes, the Canadian Vickers company in Montreal, Quebec, also manufactured 40 Stranraers under licence for the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). These Canadian Stranraers served in anti-submarine and coastal defence capacities on both Canada's Atlantic and Pacific coasts, and were in regular service until 1946. Following their withdrawal from military service, many ex-RCAF Stranraers were sold off to fledgling regional airlines, with whom they served in various commercial passenger and freighter operations into the 1950s.

  • O Supermarine Stranraer foi um hidroavião britânico biplano bimotor, construído e desenvolvido nos anos 30 de acordo com a Especificação R.24/31 do Ministério do Ar, entrando em serviço a 16 de Abril de 1937. Esta aeronave marcou o fim do desenvolvimento de hidroaviões biplanos para a Real Força Aérea. Muitos ainda estavam em serviço quando a Segunda Guerra Mundial começou, tendo sido chamada para o esforço de guerra servindo como aeronave de patrulha de comboios transcontinentais, que levavam recursos até à Grã-Bretanha, e escolta de navios anti-submarino. Dispensado da linha da frente em Março de 1941, continuou a ser usado como aeronave de treino até Outubro de 1942. A estrutura era composta principalmente por Duralumínio, com o casco coberto com uma folha metálica, e as asas com uma fibra de tecido. 17 exemplares foram construídos na Bretanha e mais 40 no Canadá, servindo a Royal Canadian Air Force até 1945. Alguns exemplares foram para a aviação civil após a guerra. (pt)
