About this product

Product Information

On 13 September 1931 the Schneider Trophy was won outright for Britain on Southampton Water by Flt Lt John Boothman flying Supermarine S6B, S1595, with a record-breaking average speed of 379.08mph. Ralph Pegram relates the story of the Schneider Trophy competitions and describes the development of British high-speed seaplane designs. He examines the anatomy of the S6B (including the Rolls-Royce R engine), as well as giving rare insights into its flying characteristics and how it was maintained, operated and - of course - raced in the final competition.

    The book condition was exactly as described and was delivered very quickly. The book was packaged really well and I got a really nice email from the seer after purchasing. I’m very impressed and would definitely recommend the book and seller to anyone else. The book itself is beautifully put together, well illustrated and written by an expert who loves war gaming. Great value and very high quality book and service.

  • Trophy winner of a publication

    This really is an excellent publication on a truly historic aircraft. Passion - a life without passion is existence , the author has passion for the subject and allay this with some incredible photo's and we have a book to really impress. I crave detail and here with diagrams are explained many many details, the management of heat dispersal from that colossus engine output is particularly welcome.
