EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the first prototype of the SFCA Lignel 46 Coach, registration number F-BCZJ (msn 01), at Shoreham Airport during the 1951 South Coast Air Race. The race, which took place on the southern coast of England, marked the debut of this innovative aircraft designed by J.G.L. Lignel. With race number 85, Lignel himself took the controls of the sleek and modern aircraft, aiming to make a strong impression in the competitive aviation event. The SFCA Lignel 46 Coach was a groundbreaking design for its time, featuring advanced aerodynamics and a streamlined fuselage. Its distinctive shape and bold colors made it a standout among the other participating aircraft. Despite the innovative design, Lignel's entry finished mid-field in the race. However, this setback did not deter the visionary designer, who continued to refine and improve the design, eventually leading to commercial success. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into aviation history, capturing the excitement and innovation of the 1951 South Coast Air Race and the early days of the SFCA Lignel 46 Coach. The image serves as a reminder of the passion and determination of aviation pioneers, who pushed the boundaries of what was possible in the skies.
