Flying Boat Leaving Capri. “Travelling by flying boat, or seaplane, was truly a highlight of one’s holiday. It was all so leisurely. I shared this pleasurable experience with my family while photographing in the many destinations visited by Aquila Airlines. Imagine the pleasure of being able to browse through a mouthwatering menu radioed from some beautiful hotel to the seaplane. Your individual tastes were then transmitted back. Now that’s enjoyable air travel.” Seaplane departing the Island of Capri, Italy, 1954
