RAE Zephyr

The RAE Zephyr was a single-seat single-engined light pusher configuration biplane designed and built by the Aero Club of the Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE) for the 1923 Lympne Motor Glider Competition. At a late stage the Aero Club chose to enter the more promising RAE Hurricane instead using the Zephyr's engine and the Zephyr itself was abandoned.
