The FBA 19 was a flying boat bomber developed in France in 1924 by Franco-British Aviation. Similar in configuration to FBA's wartime designs it was a conventional biplane flying boat with open cockpits for the three crewmembers. Unlike the firm's earlier designs however the engine was mounted tractor-fashion in a streamlined nacelle mounted in the interplane gap.
