EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the Brown 1931 Southdown Skysailer is being towed back to its launch point at Ditchling Beacon, with the help of a 1929 REO Flying Cloud. The Southdown Skysailer, designed by Leeroy Brown and built with assistance from members of the Southdown Skysailing Club, is a testament to the ingenuity and passion for aviation and sailing during the early 20th century. The Southdown Skysailer, a unique amphibious aircraft and sailboat, was a groundbreaking design for its time. Leeroy Brown, an accomplished engineer and sailor, envisioned a craft that could take off and land on water and be towed back to its launch point when necessary. The Southdown Skysailer was built with a wooden hull and a fabric-covered fuselage, featuring a wingspan of 25 feet and a length of 21 feet. The REO Flying Cloud, imported from the United States, was a powerful and versatile automobile that came to the rescue when the Southdown Skysailer encountered difficulties. The 1929 model was equipped with a six-cylinder engine, delivering 75 horsepower and capable of reaching impressive speeds for the time. The scene unfolds at Ditchling Beacon, located north of Brighton, with approximate coordinates of 50°32'34.5"N, 0°37'12.0"W. The photograph captures the spirit of adventure and innovation that characterized the early days of aviation and transportation. The Brown 1931 Southdown Skysailer and the 1929 REO Flying Cloud are a fascinating blend of aeroplane and sailboat technology, showcasing the remarkable achievements of their creators and the dedication of the Southdown Skysailing Club.
