## About This Content
The Gee Bee Model Z was an air racer built specifically to win the 1931
Thomson Trophy in Cleveland, Ohio.

Designed and constructed by Granville Brothers (‘Gee Bee’) Aircraft, it proved
to be a very capable aircraft with a 535-horsepower radial engine, and went on
to win the trophy.

Later fitted with a 750-horsepower engine, the Model Z beat the official speed
record for land aircraft and unofficially achieved more than 300mph, but was
destroyed in a crash shortly afterwards.

Being a unique aircraft, the Gee Bee Model Z serves a healthy dose of thrills
and spills during all aspects of flight. It is surprisingly easy to stall the
ailerons during take-off, and when landing, a sideslip approach is recommended
because the aircraft’s extraordinary nose makes it almost impossible to see
the runway.

Even when you’ve touched down, the excitement is still not over, as applying
the brakes carelessly will stand the Model Z on its nose. A flying tips sheet
is included to help you learn the aircraft’s quirks and get to grips with this
lively racer.
