Description
The first great British aero-engine manufacturer Sunbeam made a vital contribution to victory in the First World War. Fitted to the first aircraft to torpedo a ship, the only one to fly at Jutland, they saw service on 3 continents. Sunbeams powered the R.34 airship, the first to fly the Atlantic east to west, and land speed record-breaking cars.
