Personally, the Short 184 has always been one of my favourites. I don't agree that it was ugly; I always felt that the 184 had a certain colonial eligance about it. However, I would agree that many of Shorts earlier efforts lacked a certain something in the design department, many being simply boxes with wings. I'm going back to my hole to sulk now!

Thank you for your reaction, Dave.  The only colony that came to mind for me was a leper one.

Then Buz came along.  His creation is exquisite.

But, despite his best efforts, the 184, compared to most contemporaries, is a cormorant trying to be a skua...(Neil!)

Hope your hole isn't too Short!!

Take care,

Chris.
