The Last African Flying Boat (1993) Documentary
The Last African Flying Boat (1993) DocumentaryThe Last African Flying Boat (1993) Documentary
In the late 1930′s, the Empire flying boats of Imperial Airways linked the British colonies of East Africa from Egypt to South Africa. They carried passengers in country-club comfort on a five-day journey featuring luxury accommodations and five-star service. A half-century later, journalist Alexander Frater, producer/director David Wallace and a camera crew made a harrowing attempt to recreate the trek over present-day Africa — across what had become five independent states and two war zones.

A flying boat is a fixed-winged seaplane with a hull, allowing it to land on water. It differs from a float plane as it uses a purpose-designed fuselage which can float, granting the aircraft buoyancy. Flying boats may be stabilized by under-wing floats or by wing-like projections (called sponsons) from the fuselage. Flying boats were some of the largest aircraft of the first half of the 20th century, superseded in size only by bombers developed during World War II. Their advantage lay in using water instead of expensive land-based runways, making them the basis for international airlines in the interwar period. They were also commonly used for maritime patrol and air-sea rescue.
Following World War II, their use gradually tailed off, partially because of the investments in airports during the war. In the 21st century, flying boats maintain a few niche uses, such as for dropping water on forest fires, air transport around archipelagos, and access to undeveloped or roadless areas. Many modern seaplane variants, whether float or flying boat types are convertible amphibian aircraft where either landing gear or flotation modes may be used to land and take off.

Play in Full ScreenPlay Karaoke in Full ScreenFeeling BadNerf Herder
Met a girl at the movies
She was so beautiful
She was the one for me
So I asked her if I could call her at home
She said "No thanks just give me my popcorn"
So I followed her into the theater
And found a seat that was right behind her
Smelled her hair, smelled her sweater
And then I touched myself
Feeling bad about myself again
Feeling bad oh yeah
Feeling bad about myself again today
At the school, at the rock show
At the rollercade, everywhere I go
People are smiling
Iits always been the same
They're wearin' groovy clothes
Check me out I'm lame
Paid for a membership down at the local gym
Tired of getting dumped, let's get really pumped
Thought I'd look like Henry Rollins
But I still look like Phil Collins
Feeling bad about myself again
Girls ignore me in the chat room
Feeling bad about myself again today
We were in Paris
We were up in the Eiffel Tower
We were getting married and all our friends were there
We made love underneath the Parisian moon
But that was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a crazy dream
Feeling bad about myself again
Feeling bad oh yeah
Feeling bad about myself again today
Feeling bad about myself again
First to be the last one picked first
