1931 Schneider Trophy Race
Flying Officer Snaith in Supermarine S.6B on 13 August 1931 in high-speed trials for the Schneider Cup races. Britain was the only country able to provide an aircraft and so won the cup in perpetuity when the other Supermarine S-6B, S1595 flown by Flight Lieutenant J N Boothman flew around the course at Calshot, in the Solent, at a speed of 340.08mph on 12 September 1931.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the thrilling days of aviation in the 1930s. It captures Flying Officer Snaith, a skilled pilot, as he participates in the high-speed trials for the prestigious Schneider Cup races. The year is 1931, and this particular event holds great significance for Britain. In an era when air racing was at its peak, Britain stood out as the only country capable of providing an aircraft for this renowned competition. As fate would have it, their Supermarine S. 6B proved to be unmatched in speed and performance. This victory secured them the cup indefinitely. The photograph showcases Flying Officer Snaith expertly taxiing on water before taking off into flight mode. The plane's sleek design is evident even from a distance, with its propellers ready to propel it through the skies at incredible speeds. The image perfectly encapsulates both power and grace as water splashes around the aircraft during takeoff. It serves as a reminder of how far aviation has come since those early days of daring exploration and fierce competitions. This remarkable piece from Mirrorpix transports us back to a time when flying was still considered a marvel of human achievement—a testament to our relentless pursuit of progress and adventure in transport technology.
