This is a picture of the 1911 prototype of the Barnwell aircraft that made the first powered flight in Scotland of half a mile. I'm afraid all the images are very small and I don't want to distort them by enlarging them; but I hope it gives you a little insight into the development of powered flight in Scotland. I will be putting more images on this blog in the next few days, including images of the Grampian Engineering and Motor Co Ltd, where the aircraft were made ... Enjoy!
