IT was the decline of the seaplane market which led Short Brothers and Harland Ltd. into the air freighting business. Early work was based on the PD.15—a twin-boom project having rear clamshell doors to the freight hold and powered by four piston engines. This design grew through a number of stages to result eventually in the giant Belfast strategic freighter. Meanwhile, at the other end of the scale, the company began to pursue in earnest the development of a small freighter following the purchase of details of the Miles Caravan light freighter preliminary design.
