Summary

[edit]
Description

The aircraft displayed in the Museum's Atrium is a replica of Britannia, and was built by David Comrie at his home in Dunedin. While under construction, it was discovered that the aircraft being built was not the military version. Hurried changes were necessary to ensure the correct configuration, and finishing touches and fitting of the replica engine were undertaken at the Museum. The original Britannia was presented to the New Zealand Government in 1913 by the Imperial Air Fleet Committee - a group of UK businessmen with a vision of the potential

of military aviation.
