Oil temperatures between Etang de Berre (near Marseilles) and Malta rose somewhat but were easily rectified by higher altitude. Two days were spent at Malta making minor repairs to engine speed indicators, ASI and the exhaust heater muff of the central carburettor of N240.

By July, N251 had completed only 47 hr 20 min flying time since receiving the Saunders hull, which seems a minimal amount bearing in mind the infancy of the principle involved. The hull first started showing signs of distortion during mid-July, around the area immediately forward of the main step, on the port side. The buckling could be detected at that stage only by slight curvature apparent in the discontinuity of the hull corrugations in the planing bottom near the chine.
