The Whirlwind Series 1 was still powered by the R-1340 Wasp engine like the original Sikorksy helicopter, but already had the gearbox replaced in the usual British urge to get rid of the inferior American equipment.

Developed from the Sopwith Schneider racing seaplane, the Baby was widely used by the Royal Navy during World War I. This composite airframe in the FAA Museum is fitted with rockets which were to be fired against German airships, as illustrated in the background. Balloons were downed by aircraft using these primitive cardboard Le Prieur rockets, but never a Zeppelin.

The Wildcat was at first renamed Martlet by the British. This machine belonged to a batch of 81 originally ordered by the French navy. It was delivered in 1940 in an unusual camouflage scheme that has been restored as faithfully as possible.

In its original, cruder form as a Fairey Delta 2, WG774 broke the world air speed record in 1956, bringing it to 1132 mph (1811 km/h) or Mach 1.73. It was later rebuilt as the BAC 221 to test the Concorde wing shape. A wooden model of the Delta 2 sits under the aircraft, and the British Concorde prototype is in the background.
