Many classes of flying boat were to use this base, the best known during World War II being the Shorts LTD. of Belfast long distance ocean reconnaissance """"Sunderlands"""". Meanwhile, during the 1930's, T.E.Lawrence (""""Lawrence of Arabia"""") served there as an ordinary aircraftsman under the alias of """"Shaw"""", at a time when he had shunned his earlier public fame as Lawrence.
