  Short Brothers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shorts was the first true aviation company in the world, and was a manufacturer of flying boats during the 1920's and 30's and throughout the Second World War.
The Short Sunderland, widely operated by the Allied powers during World War II Shorts then started design work on one of their most famous designs, the Short Calcutta, based on the Singapore layout but larger and more powerful.
In the 1970s Shorts entered the feederliner market with their Shorts 330, a stretched modification of the Skyvan, called the C-23 Sherpa in USAF service, and another stretch resulted in the more streamlined Shorts 360, in which a more conventional central fin superseded the older H-profiled twin fins.

Most were built by Shorts at Rochester, Belfast, and at a new plant at Lake Windermere, but 170 were built by Blackburn.
