EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Fairey IIIA / 3A Floatplane Taxing at the 1919 Bournemouth Seaplane Derby Schneider Trophy Air Race" 2. Description: This photograph captures the moment of intense focus and determination as a Fairey IIIA / 3A floatplane taxis along the water's edge during the 1919 Bournemouth Seaplane Derby Schneider Trophy Air Race. The single-engined biplane, with its distinctive wings and open cockpit, glides effortlessly across the water's surface, leaving a gentle wake behind. The pilot, fully concentrated on the task at hand, expertly maneuvers the aircraft, preparing for the upcoming race. The image transports us back to the early days of aviation, a time of innovation, adventure, and daring feats. 3. Background: The Schneider Trophy was an international seaplane racing competition, established in 1913 by the French aviation pioneer, Raymond Sempesy de Rozas, Count of Schneider. The competition aimed to promote the development of seaplanes and naval aviation. The 1919 Bournemouth Seaplane Derby, held in England, was the fifth Schneider Trophy race. The Fairey Aviation Company, based in the United Kingdom, entered the competition with their IIIA and 3A floatplanes, which were designed primarily for reconnaissance missions. This photograph showcases the versatility of these aircraft, as they were also capable of impressive racing speeds. 4.
