EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph is a souvenir from the Schneider Trophy of 1929, an international air race for seaplanes and flying boats held at Calshot Spit, England. The Schneider Trophy, also known as the Coupe Aviation Maritime Jacques Schneider, was an annual competition established in 1913 by Jacques Schneider, a French industrialist. The event aimed to promote the development of seaplanes and flying boats by challenging designers and pilots to break speed records. In the image, we see the excitement and anticipation of the 1931 Schneider Trophy event at Calshot Spit, England. The United Kingdom's Supermarine S.6, piloted by Richard Waghorn, took the victory in the 1929 race, breaking the world seaplane speed record with an average speed of 312.7 mph. This achievement marked a significant milestone in aviation history, showcasing the technological advancements of the time. The Schneider Trophy competition continued until 1939, with the United States eventually dominating the event. The 1931 Schneider Trophy at Calshot Spit stands as a testament to the innovative spirit and ingenuity of the aviation industry during the 1930s. This photograph serves as a fascinating reminder of a bygone era, when the pursuit of speed and innovation drove the world of aviation forward.
