The Gee Bee’s
Some of the most famous racing planes designed and built in the 1930's, were the Gee Bee's. Built by the Granville brothers of the Granville Brothers Aircraft Company, Springfield, MA. The Granville brothers: Zantford, Thomas, Robert, Mark and Edward came to Springfield in 1929 to the Springfield Airport located between Liberty Street and St. James Avenue. Their racing aircraft made use of new and bold design concepts to get as much speed as possible and won many races as well as setting new speed records.
If you start talking about the Gee Bee racers most people recall only the many accidents that befell these aircraft and their pilots. Over the years, various articles have pictured these craft as "killers", "the most dangerous aircraft ever built", The fact is that Gee Bee airplanes were designed by Engineers, Models were tested in wind tunnels and their airplanes were not treacherous killers as has been depicted by many ignorant journalists. The fact is The Granville's were true heroic American entrepreneurs and their airplane designs were very successful advanced designs of that time. The slander that has attached itself to them doesn't seem to ever wear out, even after 60 years have passed. Every generation of "journalists" seems compelled to repeat the falsehoods that they have heard. The only thing that the Granville brothers and their aircraft were guilty of was being plagued by a string of bad luck!
The brothers built many racing planes. Their most notorious was the: Gee Bee Super Sportster, models R-1 (# 11) and R-2 (#7). James Doolittle won the 1932 Thompson Trophy race flying a Gee Bee R-1 at an average speed of 252.686 miles per hour. The R1 had an 800-Horsepower Pratt&Whitney Wasp Senior engine installed. Today you can see a Gee Bee R-2 on the Air Show circuit. This breathtaking, outstanding replica was built by Delmar Benjamin and Steve Wolf, and is flown by Delmar, who is a superbly skilled pilot, and has more hours flying a Gee Bee R-2 than any man in history.
