Fleet Air Arm Record Breakers & Medal
BETTER….FASTER…… FURTHER….BRAVER….. Fleet Air Arm Record Breakers & Medal Winners Quiz The Fleet Air Arm has achieved many technological firsts and broken many records in a century of Naval Aviation. The bravery of Fleet Air Arm aircrews has won them many medals, including four Victoria Crosses. Complete this trail to find out about the record breakers and Victoria Crosses on display in the Museum. Recordbreakersmarch2013Ed1 ©FleetAirArmMuseum2013 Hall 1 RECORD BREAKER Early aircra made by the Short brothers were great record breakers. In June 1910, the S38, an aircra very similar to the S27 on display, achieved the record for the highest flight. It flew at 1180 feet: not very high by today’s standards but breath-taking then. The S27 was the first aeroplane to fly from a moving ship and it won an endurance record in 1912 when it flew 4 hours non-stop. RECORD BREAKER This biplane was the first type of aircra to land on a moving ship. Tragically, its record breaking pilot crashed and died the third me he aempted this dangerous manoeuvre. Name the aircra: _________SOPWITH PUP___ Name the pilot: __________EDWIN DUNNING____ RECORD BREAKER - FACT FILE The Lynx helicopter holds the official helicopter world speed record. The record breaking flight of 249.1MpH (400.8 KpH) took place not far from this Museum, in 1986. Only recently have other helicopters begun to challenge this outstanding achievement.

HOUSMAN: Last Poems PREFACE The names of a considerable number of individuals have been included in this informal narrative, either (as in the case of squadron commanders) to distinguish units, or because of their association with the particular incidents described. They represent, of course, but a small fraction of the total number of personnel who, in the air and on the ground, have carried on staunchly, month after month, per- forming the deeds of heroism and endurance which are rou- tine among the overseas squadrons of the Royal Canadian Air Force. While the limitations of space and security do not permit the inclusion of more names, this narrative is the story of (and tribute to) all such personnel.
