THREE MOST SIGNIFICANT SEAPLANE RACERS OF THE 1920’S
2018 Dayton Concourse Poster created by Bob Calaizzi
A collage of the three most significant Schneider Cup racing seaplanes of the 1920s. The Supermarine at top is the plane that retired the Cup in 1929 after the Italian Macchi would’t start.
The Macchi was the fastest of all with a record 442 mph that stands today. Finally, Jimmy Doolittle, the only American who won the Cup in 1925 flying a Curtiss CS2-2. The top of the Schneider Cup is the drawing to the right of the Supermarine. Print #1 will be in The Champaign Aviation museum.
