Abstract

IN 1910 two young brothers by the name of Wallis built an advanced monoplane in Cambridge. The ‘Wallbro’ aircraft project bit the dust later that year when a freak storm destroyed the shed the brothers were using as a hangar. But the flying bug remained in their family and now, many years later, Wing Commander K H Wallis (ret'd), son of one of the original aviators, holds a string of world records to prove it.
