In 1913, Frank Barnwell designed the Bristol Scout, which was the fastest and most manoeuvrable warplane for the first eighteen months of the First World War, and became the prototype single-seat fighter from which all later fighters were derived. As a result Barnwell became one of the seminal figures in the development of aircraft design.

Autorenporträt
David Bremner flew the first hang gliders and the first Microlight aircraft and it seems logical that he should now fly one of the first warplanes. He edited 'Microlight Flying' magazine for fifteen years and test flew most of the current machines on the UK market. He is a chartered mechanical engineer and works part time to fund the operation of his grandfather's favorite machine, which is also his own. Together with wife Sue and friend Theo Willford he introduces the public to this magnificent machine and is a regular airshow display pilot in the UK.
