Air Racer Tapestries

Vintage air racer from the golden age of The Kings Cup air race

The Macchi MC-72 was the ultimate seaplane speed king. Though built for the lats Schneider Trophy race development and reliability prevented it from doing so but later it twice broke the all time seaplane speed record which still stands after which in 1933 it never flew again and is now displayed in a museum in Italy. Like the Supermarine racers it did inspire future fighter designs in WW2.

A cool motocross racer takes to the air in his battle to take the lead in a championship motocross race.

The Percival Mew Gull was a British racing aircraft of the 1930s and considered by some to be "the Holy Grail of British air racing". Although not fighting aircraft the development of air racers helped make planes faster and more maneuverable and influenced the development of military aviation as well as taught pilots skills they would need in times of conflict.

The Macchi M.C. 72 was an experimental seaplane designed and built by the Italian aircraft company Macchi Aeronautica. Though it was designed to confront the all conquering Supermarine seaplanes in the final Schneider Trophy race a troubled development prevented this leaving the former to race alone. However the M.C. 72 held the world speed record for all aircraft for five years. In 1933 and 1934 it set world speed records for piston engine-powered seaplanes and the latter still stands. After the second record setter it never flew again but a preserved Macchi M.C.72 can be seen at the Museo storico dell'Aeronautica Militare di Vigna di Valle, Italy.

The race is on, this young motocross racer is getting some serious air on the way to the finish line.
