Pashley Brothers Biplane
The Pashley Brothers Biplane was designed and constructed by Cecil Lawrence Pashley and Eric Clowes Pashley at Shoreham, and was completed in July, 1914. The machine was able to carry two passengers on the power of its 50 h.p. Gnome engine. Ailerons were fitted on upper and lower wing-tips. Piloted by Eric Pashley, it won the Brighton Cup and ?70 prize money in a race held in July. Rebuilding was scheduled to include the installation of a 100 h.p. Monosoupape Gnome, and the substitution of a revised vee-type two-wheel undercarriage for reduction of head-resistance and improved performance. The machine was employed as a trainer at Shoreham. Weight empty, 800 lb. Maximum speed, 61 m.p.h.
