The Graham-Perren Racer, or Graham-Perren Monoplane, was a racing aircraft built to compete in the 1934 National Air Races, including the Greve Trophy.[1]
Design and development
The racer was a short-coupled, wire braced, mid-winged aircraft with fixed conventional landing gear and an open cockpit. The Wright Gipsy engine protruded upward through the cowl leaving little forward visibility.[2]
