1. Title: "Thrilling the Skies: Supermarine Sea Lion III / 3 in Action at the 1923 Schneider Trophy Air Race". This photograph showcases the Supermarine Sea Lion III / 3, registration number G-EBah, in its prime during the 1923 Schneider Trophy Air Race. This biplane seaplane, specifically designed for the competition, was a marvel of the 1920s aviation world. Powered by a single piston engine and featuring a pusher propeller, the Sea Lion III / 3 was a sight to behold. The Schneider Trophy was an international air race established in 1913 to promote the development of seaplanes and water takeoff and landing techniques. The 1923 event, held in Calshot, England, marked the fifth edition of this prestigious competition. The Supermarine Sea Lion III / 3, piloted by Lt. Cdr. R.N. C.H. Samson, was the British entry in this race. The Sea Lion III / 3 was an evolution of the previous Sea Lion models, with improvements in aerodynamics, engine power, and overall performance. Its sleek design, combined with the skill of its pilot, made it a formidable contender in the race. In this photograph, we see the Sea Lion III / 3 in mid-flight, its wings slicing through the air, and its pusher propeller churning up the water below. The 1923 Schneider Trophy Air Race was a significant moment in aviation history, with the Supermarine Sea Lion III / 3 setting a new world seaplane speed record of 136.7 mph. This achievement not only solidified the reputation of Supermarine as a leading aviation company but also paved the way for further advancements in seaplane technology and design. This photograph is a testament to the thrilling era of civil aviation in the 1920s, where innovation, competition, and the spirit of adventure came together to push the boundaries of what was possible in the skies.
