| Gee Bee R-1 Built in the early 1930s, the Gee Bee was the most famous of the American racing aircraft, but was hard to fly. Zantford Granville (Gee Bee designer) and his colleagues built the aircraft for speed. They shortened the fuselage, shortened the wings and added a bigger engine. unfortunately, their single minded passion for speed resulted in an aircraft that at best, was dangerous to fly. Only three were built and all crashed trying to set new speed records. |
