Conceived by racing car driver, pilot and water speed record holder Henry Segrave, the Meteor G-AAXP was built by Saunders-Roe at Cowes in 1930. It was cancelled from the register as destroyed in September 1932. Two versions with metal fuselages were completed by Blackburn as Blackburn CA18 Segraves. A third one was used to test a tubular spar wing as the CA20 Segrave II. Photo from: The National Library of Australia This photo was added on 18 August 2019, and has since been viewed 450 times. |
