Derbys. One of these, the single-seater, will be flown by Hinkler, whose magnificent performances on this machine, with its little 35 h.p. Green engine, have caused world-wide admiration, and the other, a little two-seater Baby of slightly jarger dimensions, but with the same type of engine, will be flown by Capt. T. Tully. Mr. D. L. Forestier-Walkerr^as entered, and will pilot a Sopwith Pup, and we frankly JULY 14, 1921 confess to looking forward to seeing once more this one-time darling machine of the pilots. With its 80 h.p. le Rhone engine, the Pup had a very good performance, and, well handled, is capable of some very pretty flying. Among the slowest machines of all those entered will be the old B.E.2E, 90 h.p. R.A.F. IA engine, piloted by Capt. A. H. Curtis.
