Lieutenant John W. Seddon of the Royal Navy belived to be on the right of this picture
Lieutenant John W. Seddon of the Royal Navy belived to be on the right of this picture inspired by a flying paper model designed a giant tandem biplane called the Mayfly. In with which he hoped to win the Daily Mail prize for the first Manchester to London flight. The aircraft was built out of hoops of high-tensile steel tubing which were much more efficient than conventional wood and wire bracing. The Navy allowed him to pursue the project by giving him leave and his family largely pay for it. The aircraft was built in a bicycle factorynear Wolverhampton and used up 610m of steel tubing. On its only high-speed run, a wheel collapsed and the aircraft was damaged. Repairs were hampered by Seddons return to the navy and the Mayfly never did fly. 6th September 1910
